ASTM D1015 – Standard Test Method for Freezing Points of High-Purity Hydrocarbons (Withdrawn 2019)
Description:
Significance and Use
4.1 The freezing point measured by this test method, when used in conjunction with the physical constants for the hydrocarbons listed in Test Method D1016, allows the determination of the purity of the material under test. A knowledge of the purity of these hydrocarbons is often needed to help control their manufacture and to determine their suitability for use as reagent chemicals or for conversion to other chemical intermediates or finished products.
Scope
1.1 This test method covers a procedure for the precise measurement of the freezing points of high-purity hydrocarbons.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values in parentheses are for information only.
