Latex Test Procedure


The latex rubber stability test machine / apparatus tests the mechanical stability of concentrated natural and synthetic latex rubber when subjected to high speed mechanical stirring or mechanical shear. Stirring is applied to the latex rubber at a constant of 14,000 rpm until the end point, or latex instability is reached. The approach to the end point is usually indicated by a drop in meniscus of the latex, loss of turbulence and a change in the sound of stirring action.

The end point is determined by the first appearance of small pieces of coagulated rubber. This end point is confirmed by the presence of an increased amount of coagulated rubber after 15 seconds additional rotation. The end point in this case is the presence of approximately 1% of coagulum based on total solids. The mechanical stability value for a latex is expressed as the number of seconds elapsed from the start of the test to the end point.
APPLICABLE STANDARDS BS 6057 PART 3 SECTION 3.1 (ISO 35) and BS 6057 Part 3 Section 3.14 (ISO 2006)

ASTM Designation D1076 - 88 Standard Specification for Rubber - Concentrated, Ammonia Preserved, Creamed and Centrifuged Natural Latex ASTM Designation D1417 - 90 Standard Test Methods for Rubber Latices - Synthetic

The Latex Rubber Test Machine has a highly reliable series wound motor rotates at 14000 RPM. which is electronically controlled It comes complete with visual confirmation in the form of colored DISPLAY and is supported by a matt black (crome plated) METAL bracket on a chrome plated column. The glass (synthetic) or perspex (natural) beaker is retained on its table. Height is adjustable. The apparatus should be mounted on hard sponge rubber sheet set . Motor bearings are sealed for life. The unit is fully protected for use in tropical climates.

Parts Key list 1. End cap 2. Bearing caps 3. Operating Switches 4. 60w SB fitting lamp 5. Adjustable stop (for beaker table) 6. Latex beaker (glass - synthetic, perspex - natural) 7. Moulded handwheel Knob for table height adjuster 8. Stainless steel paddle to ISO dimensions 9. Chrome plated column 10. Lamp and motor switches (as indicated)

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Height Setting


The hand wheel knob (7) lowers the beaker from . This enables the user to set the depth between the paddle and the base of the beaker to exactly 13mm. A distance piece is supplied with the spare parts. With the distance piece in position between the paddle and the beaker, the adjustable stop (5) is set by means of screwed caps which prevent the table from being too high. It is not necessary to alter this until a new container is used. The container is held in position

Speed Control
The speed is factory set to 14,000 RPM. When switched on, the electronic circuitry automatically brings the unit to the correct speed . The feedback circuit maintains this speed at 14,000 200 RPM, within the stated voltage range.
