Rubber, raw styrene-butadiene, emulsion-polymerized — Determination of bound styrene content — Refractive index method (ISO 2453:2020)
This document specifies a method for determining the bound styrene content of emulsion-polymerizedstyrene-butadiene rubbers (SBR) by correlation with the measured refractive index of an extractedsample according to a table of refractive indices versus percentage mass fractions styrene.The method is also applicable to extracted oil-extended emulsion-polymerized SBR as long as it producesa film suitable for refractive index measurements. It is not applicable to solution-polymerized SBR.
