ASTM D3235 – Standard Test Method for Solvent Extractables in Petroleum Waxes
Description:
Significance and Use
5.1 The solvent extractables in a wax may have significant effects on several of its properties such as strength, hardness, flexibility, scuff resistance, coefficient of friction, coefficient of expansion, melting point, and staining characteristics. Whether these effects are desirable or undesirable depends on the intended use of the wax.
Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of solvent extractables in petroleum waxes.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard.
1.2.1 Exception—The values given in parentheses are for information only.
