ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
Material EMPIS Materials A12C19A, C, D, and F shall be an expanded, closed-cell, low sulfur, 100% chloroprene rubber
that meet the properties of this specification. EMPIS Materials A12C19B, E, G, and H shall be an expanded, closed-cell,
low sulfur chloroprene blend (1) that meet the properties of this specification, as agreed between purchaser and supplier.
Form Material shall be supplied in sheet, strip or molded form, as indicated by the EMPIS designations above.
Color Shall be black unless otherwise specified by the purchaser.
Skin Sheet and strip material for A12C19A and H grades shall have a natural skin on both top and bottom surfaces. EMPIS
Materials A12C19B and C shall have skin on one side only (allowing for a cut surface on top or bottom of sheet and strip
material). EMPIS Materials A12C19D and E shall have no skin (cut surfaces allowed on both top or bottom of sheet and
strip material). EMPIS Materials A12C19F and G shall be a molded material with a natural skin on all surfaces.

(1) On request suppliers must provide certification for the % chloroprene for all blends.
