ASTM D1120 – Standard Test Method for Boiling Point of Engine Coolants Description: Abstract This test method establishes the standard procedures for the determination of the equilibrium boiling point of engine coolants. The equilibrium boiling point indicates the temperature at which the sample will start to boil in a cooling system under equilibrium conditions at …
ASTM D1119 – Standard Test Method for Percent Ash Content of Engine Coolants Description: Significance and Use 5.1 This test method is designed to aid in identifying types of coolants. While the ash is primarily due to the inorganic inhibitors used, it is not a measure of the total inhibitor concentration because of the loss of …
ASTM D1117 – Standard Guide for Evaluating Nonwoven Fabrics (Withdrawn 2009) Description: Significance and Use Refer to the particular test method cited for the property of interest for specific significance and use statements. In case of a dispute arising from the differences in reported test values when using the test methods listed in these test …
ASTM D1102 – Standard Test Method for Ash in Wood Description: Significance and Use 2.1 The ash content is an approximate measure of the mineral content and other inorganic matter in wood. Scope 1.1 This test method covers the determination of ash, expressed as the percentage of residue remaining after dry oxidation (oxidation at 580 to 600°C), …
ASTM D1101 – Standard Test Methods for Integrity of Adhesive Joints in Structural Laminated Wood Products for Exterior Use Description: Significance and Use 4.1 The test is suitable for check testing properly selected samples from regular production or for determining the suitability of adhesives and bonding techniques for the production of joints for exterior service. 4.2 Vary …
ASTM D1094 – Standard Test Method for Water Reaction of Aviation Fuels Description: Significance and Use 5.1 When applied to aviation gasoline, water reaction volume change using the technique reveals the presence of water-soluble components such as alcohols. When applied to aviation turbine fuels, water reaction interface rating using the technique is not reliable in revealing …
ASTM D1093 – Standard Test Method for Acidity of Hydrocarbon Liquids and Their Distillation Residues Description: Significance and Use 5.1 Some petroleum products are treated with mineral acid as part of the refining procedure. Obviously, any residual mineral acid in a petroleum product is undesirable. The absence of a positive indication in the test for acidity …
ASTM D1092 – Standard Test Method for Measuring Apparent Viscosity of Lubricating Greases Description: Significance and Use 5.1 Apparent viscosity versus shear rate information can be useful in predicting pressure drops in grease distribution systems under steady-state flow conditions at constant temperature. Scope 1.1 This test method covers measurement, in poises, of the apparent viscosity of lubricating …
ASTM D1091 – Standard Test Methods for Phosphorus in Lubricating Oils and Additives (Withdrawn 2021) Description: Significance and Use 4.1 Knowledge of the phosphorus content, and thus the phosphorus-containing additives, in a lubricating oil or additive can be used to predict performance characteristics. This test method is suitable for most applications requiring the determination of phosphorus. …
ASTM D1084 – Standard Test Methods for Viscosity of Adhesives Description: Significance and Use 4.1 Several test methods are noted for viscosity determination of Newtonian and near Newtonian flow characteristics. (For adhesives not fitting into this category, Test Method D2556 should be considered.) Four test methods are covered as follows: 4.1.1 Method A is applicable only to adhesives that will …
