ISO 12000:2000 pdf download – Plastics/rubber — Polymer dispersions andrubber latices (natural and synthetic)一Definitions and review of test methods.
ISO 12000 gives definitions relative to polymer dispersions and latices and identifies the test methods applicable for determining the properties of polymer dispersions. conipnsing products of synthetic or natural origin including synthetic and natural wbbe latices. Some of the test methods apply only to polymer dispersions or latices of specific chemical composition or to those to be used for specific applications.
NOTE Where they are not the suect of an e*istmg International Stancfard. the test mathods to be used for investigation of an individual polymer dispersion or taleir witl have to be the subect of agreement between the interested parties

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this International Standard, the following terms and definitions epply.
3.1
dispersion
a heterogeneous system wi which a finely divided material is distributed in another material IISO 472:19991
3.2
polymer dispersIon (dispersion of natural or synthetic homopolymer and copolymer)
a liquid to semi.i.quid material, usually milky.wtiite, containing the polymeric material Wi a stable condition irneiy
dispersed in a continuous bquid phase, normally water
3.3
latex
the traditional designation for a colloidal aqueous dispersion of nalural or synthetic rubber polymer
NOTE 1 Frequently, iatex is alao used as a syricnym br polymer aspersions r general
NOTE 2 Polymer dispersions and latices we often further explained by adding the designabon of the base polymer by name or by abbreviation. for instance polyacrylale dispersion, S8I latex.
4 Sampling
Sampling shall be carried out in accordance with ISO 123 (rubber latex).
Representative samples of polymer dispersions and of latices are a prerequisite for reliable and reproducible
results from the test methods. Therefore the material to be tested must be urxfomi.
5 CondItioning
The conditioning and testing atmosphere shall comply with the specified test method or referring standard, as applicable. If there are no such requirements, then samples shall be conditioned and tests carried out in one of the standard atmospheres specified in either ISO 291 for polymer dispersions or ISO 471 for latices. as appropriate.
