Density (Specific Gravity)= 1.05 (ASTM D-792)
Flexural Strength (D790) 12500 PSI
Hardness (ROCKWELL) (D785) M75
Sample Procedure The pyrolysis technique is commonly used in the infrared identification of polymers and results in spectra of both the volatile and non-volatile pyrolyzed fractions the polymer under investigation. It can be used by researchers to identify principal polymer types. The volatile (Vapor Phase) and non-volatile (Condensed Phase) IR spectra resulting from the pyrolysis of this sample are available in SpectraBase as FOSTALITE 879 - Controlled Pyrolyzate (Vapor Phase) and FOSTALITE 879 - Controlled Pyrolyzate (Condensed Phase).
Softening Point (ASTM D-1525) 223F
