Published By | Publication Date | Number of Pages |
ASTM | 2007 | 3 |
This practice covers a uniform, consensus nomenclature approach for thermoplastic elastomers, but does not involve any attempt to develop an exclusively systematic process for nomenclature and abbreviation designation. Rather, this practice is intended to accommodate and supplement any existing trade names and trademarks. For example, definitions and abbreviations for thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV) and dynamic vulcanization (DV) have been included, among others.

It is informational only and not an official part of the standard; the full text of the standard itself must be referred to for its use and application.
