1.1 This test method describes the collection of absorption spectra of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) polymer in filled and unfilled grades, as supplied by a vendor, and the subsequent calculation of the percent crystallinity. The material is evalu-ated by infrared spectroscopy. The intensity (height) of the absorbance peaks is related to the amount ofcrystalline regions present in

1.1 This guide covers techniques that are appropriate for the construction of high performance sand-based rootzones for golf greens and tees. This guide provides guidance for the selection of materials, including soil, sand, gravel, peat, etc.,for use in designing and constructing sand-based golf turf rootzones. 1.2 Decisions in selecting construction and maintenance techniques are influenced

1.1 This guide sets forth labeling and instruction guidelines for manufacturers of headgear for non-motorized sports and recreation. 1.2 This guide applies only to protective headgear whose standard specifications are under auspices of ASTM Commit-tee F08.

1.1 This practice covers a laboratory-based in viro method for evaluating the mechanical performance of materials and devices being considered for replacement of the tibio-femoral joint in human knee joint replacement prostheses in mobile bearing knee systems. 1.2 Mobile bearing knee systems permit internal external rotation to take place on one or both articulating surfaces.Some

1.1 This specification covers ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) powder blended with alpha-tocopherol (Vitamin E) intended for use in surgical implants. 1.2 The requirements of this specification apply to alpha-tocopherol-containing UHMWPE in two forms. One is virgin polymer powder blended with alpha-tocopherol prior to con-solidation (Section 4). The second is any form fabricated from this

1.1 This practice provides guidance for the functional,kinematic, and wear testing of motion-preserving total facet prostheses for the lumbar spine. These implants are intended to allow motion and lend support to the functional spinal unit(s) through replacement of the natural facets.

1.1 This practice for life cycle cost analysis of commercial food service equipment is designed for producers and end-users to utilize when forecasting and (or) evaluating the life cycle costs ofequipment by accounting for tangible differences in operating and maintenance costs ofcommercial food service equipment. Results of the analysis detailed in this standard practice are

1.1 This test method specifies the test equipment and procedures for conducting tests to estimate the entry of chemical agent vapor simulant through protective ensembles while worn by test subjects. 1.2 This test method permits the evaluation of protective ensembles consisting of protective garments or suits, gloves,footwear, respirators, and interface devices.

1.1 This specification covers warnings used on refillable CO 2 cylinders with a threaded interface used in the sport of paintball. 1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use.
