Density is one of the most widely used tests in the rubber industry. It can be used to verify that production quantities were produced with the proper ingredient levels and to check batch to bach consistency. The density of a material may be compared to the theoretical density of a reconstructed formulation to assure that a proper analysis has been performed.
