This standard establishes a test method to measure the ability of elastomeric materials to withstand static
exposure to vapor phase sour gas environments (e.g., gaseous hydrocarbons with hydrogen sulfide [H2S]) at
elevated pressure. This test method is not designed to be an immersion or a functional test. It is designed for testing
standard O-rings or test specimens of elastomeric vulcanites cut from standard sheets (see ASTM D31822). This
test method is not applicable to testing cellular rubber or porous materials.

D4538, G40, or other ASTM terminology standards.

1.2
This terminology and acronyms standard is a result of an
agreement between NACE International and ASTM International
Committee G01 on Corrosion of Metals and may not
reflect the opinions of other ASTM committees.

1.3
In this terminology and acronyms standard, brackets are
used for directives that follow a definition and are obviously
not part of it, such as, "[see XXX]" and "[also known as
