Raw, natural rubber — Determination of the plasticity retention index (PRI)

<p class="MsoBodyText"><span lang="EN-GB">This document specifies a method to determine the plasticity retention index (PRI) of raw natural rubber.</span></p> <p class="MsoBodyText"><span lang="EN-GB">The PRI is a measure of the resistance of raw natural rubber to thermal oxidation. A high resistance to thermal oxidation is shown as a high value of the index. PRI is not an absolute value and cannot give an absolute classification of plasticity number of different natural rubber after oxidation.</span></p>
