ASTM D6442 – Standard Test Method for Determination of Copper Release Rate From Antifouling Coatings in Substitute Ocean Water Description: Significance and Use 4.1 This test method is designed to provide a laboratory procedure to quantify and characterize the release rates of copper from antifouling coatings in substitute ocean water over a period of immersion under …
ASTM D6194 – Standard Test Method for Glow-Wire Ignition of Materials Description: Significance and Use 5.1 During operation of electrical equipment, including wires, resistors, and other conductors, it is possible for overheating to occur under certain conditions of operation, or when malfunctions occur. When this happens, a possible result is ignition of the adjacent insulation material. …
ASTM D6184 – Standard Test Method for Oil Separation from Lubricating Grease (Conical Sieve Method) Description: Significance and Use 5.1 When lubricating grease separates oil, the residual material may change in consistency, which can affect the ability of the product to function as designed. Test results obtained with this procedure are not intended to predict oil …
ASTM D6181 – Standard Test Method for Measurement of Turbidity in Mineral Insulating Oil of Petroleum Origin (Withdrawn 2012) Description: Significance and Use This test method uses a ratio turbidimetric optical system to measure the turbidity of insulating oils relative to turbidity standards. Cloudiness or turbidity is attributed to matter whose diameter is approximately 20 …
ASTM D6107 – Standard Specification for Stop-Leak Additive for Engine Coolants Used in Light Duty Service Description: Abstract This specification covers the requirements of a stop-leak additive to function effectively in automobile and light duty service. The stop-leak is intended to seal small leaks in engine cooling systems without adversely affecting heat transfer and fluid …
ASTM D6007 – Standard Test Method for Determining Formaldehyde Concentrations in Air from Wood Products Using a Small-Scale Chamber Description: Significance and Use 4.1 Upper limits for the formaldehyde emission rates have been established for wood panel building products made with urea-formaldehyde adhesives and permanently installed in homes or used as components in kitchen cabinets and …
ASTM D5790 – Standard Test Method for Measurement of Purgeable Organic Compounds in Water by Capillary Column Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry Description: Significance and Use 5.1 Purgeable organic compounds have been identified as contaminants in treated drinking water, wastewater, ground water, and Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) leachate. These contaminants may be harmful to the environment and …
ASTM D5742 – Standard Test Method for Determination of Butane Activity of Activated Carbon Description: Significance and Use 5.1 The butane activity as determined by this test method is a measure of the ability of an activated carbon to adsorb butane from dry air under specified conditions. It is useful for the quality control and evaluation …
ASTM D5673 – Standard Test Method for Elements in Water by Inductively Coupled Plasma—Mass Spectrometry Description: Significance and Use 5.1 The test method is useful for the determination of element concentrations in many natural waters, metallurgical process cyanide solutions and wastewaters. It has the capability for the determination of up to 21 elements. High analysis sensitivity …
ASTM D5623 – Standard Test Method for Sulfur Compounds in Light Petroleum Liquids by Gas Chromatography and Sulfur Selective Detection Description: Significance and Use 4.1 Gas chromatography with sulfur selective detection provides a rapid means to identify and quantify sulfur compounds in various petroleum feeds and products. Often these materials contain varying amounts and types of …
