This Technical Specification (CEN/TS) was approved by CEN on 24 August 2020 for provisional application.

The period of validity of this CEN/TS is limited initially to three years. After two years the members of CEN will be requested to
submit their comments, particularly on the question whether the CEN/TS can be converted into a European Standard.

CEN members are required to announce the existence of this CEN/TS in the same way as for an EN and to make the CEN/TS
available promptly at national level in an appropriate form. It is permissible to keep conflicting national standards in force (in
parallel to the CEN/TS) until the final decision about the possible conversion of the CEN/TS into an EN is reached.

Introduction
Specific surface area (A ) is a parameter of great importance when it comes to physical characterization
s
of materials such as granulates and powders from rubber materials. Like other physical characteristics,
specific surface area could influence the performance of materials in its different applications.
Depending on the type of sample to be characterized, several different methods can be used for the
determination of the specific surface area, generally based on different physical principles. The most
widespread and useful method used in materials characterization is gas adsorption, either through
gravimetric or volumetric methods.
For very low surface area samples the traditional volumetric method of nitrogen adsorption at 77 K or
2 -1
Argon at 87 K shows some important limitations. Alternatively, for absolute areas as low as 0,05 m g
the suitable method for A determination is krypton adsorption at 77 K.
s
1 Scope
This document specifies a method for the determination of low specific surface area of powders ELTs
rubber by measuring the amount of physically adsorbed krypton gas and applying the theoretical
multipoint Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (BET) method.
This document defines a specific method for powders taking into account that, in order to obtain an
accurate value of specific surface area, a representative sample of the material to be tested is taken
according to the principle that every particle of the sample that represents the lot have an equal
probability of being included in the sample.
