ASTM D4007 – Standard Test Method for Water and Sediment in Crude Oil by the Centrifuge Method (Laboratory Procedure) Description: Significance and Use 5.1 The water and sediment content of crude oil is significant because it can cause corrosion of equipment and problems in processing. A determination of water and sediment content is required to measure …
ASTM D3889 – Standard Test Method for Adherence to Linerboard of Pressure-Sensitive Tape at Low Temperature Description: Significance and Use 5.1 Satisfactory tape performance at the test temperature implies satisfactory cold-temperature performance at or above the test temperature. 5.2 This procedure would be applicable for questions of adherence to 100 % kraft fiberboards similar to the standard linerboard …
ASTM D3835 – Standard Test Method for Determination of Properties of Polymeric Materials by Means of a Capillary Rheometer Description: Significance and Use 4.1 This test method is sensitive to polymer molecular weight and molecular weight distribution, polymer stability—both thermal and rheological, shear instability, and additives such as plasticizers, lubricants, moisture reinforcements, or inert fillers, or …
ASTM D3833 – Standard Test Method for Water Vapor Transmission of Pressure-Sensitive Tapes Description: Significance and Use 5.1 The results of this test method will indicate the relative permeability by water vapor of the tape through its smallest dimension (generally normal to the tape’s backing). 5.1.1 The pathway for the water vapor parallel to the adhesive-cup interface …
ASTM D3828 – Standard Test Methods for Flash Point by Small Scale Closed Cup Tester Description: Significance and Use 5.1 Flash point measures the response of the test specimen to heat and ignition source under controlled laboratory conditions. It is only one of a number of properties that must be considered in assessing the overall flammability …
ASTM D3816 – Standard Test Method for Water Penetration Rate of Pressure-Sensitive Tapes Description: Significance and Use 5.1 The results of this test method will indicate the relative permeability by water of the tape through its smallest dimension (generally normal to the tape’s backing). 5.1.1 The pathway for the water parallel to the adhesive-cup interface is great …
ASTM D3776 – Standard Test Methods for Mass Per Unit Area (Weight) of Fabric Description: Abstract These test methods cover the measurement of fabric mass per unit area (weight) and is applicable to most fabrics. There are four approved options in the measurement of fabric mass per unit area: Option A, Option B, Option C, …
ASTM D3719 –Standard Test Method for Quantifying Dirt Collection on Coated Exterior Panels (Withdrawn 2009) Description: Significance and Use Change in color or appearance of coated exterior surfaces due to such factors as dirt collection or retention is undesirable. If Test Method D 3274 or other test methods are used to establish that dirt collection is …
ASTM D3786 – Standard Test Method for Bursting Strength of Textile Fabrics—Diaphragm Bursting Strength Tester Method Description: Significance and Use 5.1 This method for the determination of diaphragm bursting strength of knitted, nonwoven and woven fabrics is being used by the textile industry for the evaluation of a wide variety of end uses. 5.2 In cases where …
ASTM D3775 – Standard Test Method for End (Warp) and Pick (Filling) Count of Woven Fabrics Description: Significance and Use 5.1 This test method is considered satisfactory for acceptance testing of commercial shipments because it has been used extensively in the trade for that purpose. 5.1.1 If there are differences of practical significance between reported test results …
