Title
Standard Specification for Cellulose Acetate Propionate Molding and Extrusion Compounds
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Jul 1, 2005
Scope:
(Footnote *)
This specification covers requirements for plasticized cellulose
acetate propionate thermoplastic
compounds suitable for injection molding and extrusion. These
compounds have a propionyl content
less than 48 % and an acetyl content less than 3 % and may or may not
contain dyes and pigments.
Cellulosic plastic materials, being thermoplastic, are reprocessable
and recyclable. This
specification allows for the use of those cellulosic materials,
provided that all specific
requirements of this specification are met.
The properties included in this specification are those required to
identify the compositions
covered. There may be other requirements necessary to identify
particular characteristics important
to specialized applications. These may be specified by using the
suffixes as given in Section 5.
This classification system and subsequent line call out specification
are intended to provide a
means of calling out plastic materials used in the fabrication of end
items or parts. It is not
intended for the selection of materials. Material selection should be
made by those having
expertise in the plastic field after careful consideration of the
design and performance required
of the part, environment to which it will be exposed, fabrication
process to be employed, costs
involved, and inherent properties of the material other than those
covered by this specification.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard.
The following safety hazards caveat pertains only to the test method
portion, Section 11, of this
specification. This standard does not purport to address all of the
safety concerns, if any,
associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this
standard to establish
appropriate safety and health practices and determine the
applicability of regulatory limitations
prior to use.
NOTE 1 - There is no equivalent or similar ISO standard.
Footnote * - A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this
standard.
