5. Labulk-0307 Plastic Materials Apparent Density Tester, Bulk Factor Tester and Pourability Tester Manual – Report – Bulk Factor

Report the following information:

• Average apparent density of the plastic material and the method employed
• Average density of the molded or formed specimen
• Bulk factors calculated from them.

NOTE 7: Because bulk factor is a dimensionless ratio, it permits ranking of plastic materials, with respect to volume change upon fabrication, regadless of their molded or formed density ( or specific gravity).

NOTE 8: For measurements made in accordance with Test Method C, bulk factor before and after loading shall be reported. These shall be clearly identified.
