Designation:D222693(Reapproved 2012)Standard Classification forVarious Types of Petroleum Oils for Rubber CompoundingUse1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D2226;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This classification is intended to establish classificationand test methods for certain types of oil used in extending andprocessing styrene-butadiene rubbers(SBR)and butadienerubbers(BR).Its purpose is for classification only and not forspecification.1.2 This standard may involve hazardous materials,operations,and equipment.This standard does not purport toaddress all of the safety concerns,if any,associated with itsuse.It is the responsibility of the user of this standard toestablish appropriate safety and health practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2D88 Test Method for Saybolt ViscosityD92 Test Method for Flash and Fire Points by ClevelandOpen Cup TesterD97 Test Method for Pour Point of Petroleum ProductsD445 Test Method for Kinematic Viscosity of Transparentand Opaque Liquids(and Calculation of Dynamic Viscos-ity)D611 Test Methods for Aniline Point and Mixed AnilinePoint of Petroleum Products and Hydrocarbon SolventsD972 Test Method for Evaporation Loss of LubricatingGreases and OilsD974 Test Method for Acid and Base Number by Color-Indicator TitrationD1298 Test Method for Density,Relative Density(SpecificGravity),or API Gravity of Crude Petroleum and LiquidPetroleum Products by Hydrometer MethodD1500 Test Method for ASTM Color of Petroleum Products(ASTM Color Scale)D2007 Test Method for Characteristic Groups in RubberExtender and Processing Oils and Other Petroleum-Derived Oils by the Clay-Gel Absorption Chromato-graphic MethodD2008 Test Method for Ultraviolet Absorbance and Absorp-tivity of Petroleum ProductsD2501 Test Method for Calculation of Viscosity-GravityConstant(VGC)of Petroleum OilsD2887 Test Method for Boiling Range Distribution of Pe-troleum Fractions by Gas Chromatography2.2 International Institute of Synthetic Rubber Producers:The Synthetic Rubber Manual,12th Ed.,199233.Significance and Use3.1 The composition of the oil in rubber compounds has alarge effect on the characteristics and use of the compounds.This classification divides the oils into broad categories fordescriptive purposes.4.Numbering System4.1 The description and numbers of polymers and laticesincluding oil extended polymers outlined are in a brochureissued and updated by the International Institute of SyntheticRubber Producers,Inc.Notes of explanation to cover differ-ences in nomenclature or variations in classifications fromASTM practices are incorporated as necessary.5.Basis of Classification5.1 Classification of petroleum oils as used for extendingand processing styrene-butadiene rubbers(SBR)and butadienerubbers(BR)is given in Table 1.Classification is based onresults obtained in accordance with Test Method D2007 andTest Method D2501.6.Test Methods6.1 The types of petroleum oils listed in Table 1 may befurther characterized by testing in accordance with Test Meth-ods D88,D92,D97,D445,D611,D972,D974,D1298,D1500,D2008,and D2887.1This classification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D11 onRubber and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D11.20 on CompoundingMaterials and Procedures.Current edition approved May 1,2012.Published May 2012.Originallyapproved in 1963.Last previous edition approved in 2007 as D2226 93(2007).DOI:10.1520/D2226-93R12.2For referenced ASTM standards,visit the ASTM website,www.astm.org,orcontact ASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.org.For Annual Book of ASTMStandards volume information,refer to the standards Document Summary page onthe ASTM website.3Available from International Institute of Synthetic Rubber Producers,Inc.,2077S.Gessner Rd.,Suite 133,Houston,TX 77063.Copyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United States1 7.Keywords7.1 extending oils;petroleum oils;processing oilsASTM International takes no position respecting the validity of any patent rights asserted in connection with any item mentionedin this standard.Users of this standard are expressly advised that determination of the validity of any such patent rights,and the riskof infringement of such rights,are entirely their own responsibility.This standard is subject to revision at any time by the responsible technical committee and must be reviewed every five years andif not revised,either reapproved or withdrawn.Your comments are invited either for revision of this standard or for additional standardsand should be addressed to ASTM International Headquarters.Your comments will receive careful consideration at
