ASTM D3338 – Standard Test Method for Estimation of Net Heat of Combustion of Aviation Fuels Description: Significance and Use 5.1 This test method is intended for use as a guide in cases where experimental determination of heat of combustion is not available and cannot be made conveniently and where an estimate is considered satisfactory. It …
ASTM D3337 – Standard Test Method for Determining Life and Torque of Lubricating Greases in Small Ball Bearings (Withdrawn 2009) Description: Significance and Use This test method is a screening test to differentiate among the expected life of greases in ball bearings running at high temperatures. If torque is a factor in selection of a …
ASTM D3336 – Standard Test Method for Life of Lubricating Greases in Ball Bearings at Elevated Temperatures Description: Significance and Use 4.1 This test method can be used to evaluate the ability of grease to provide adequate lubrication for extended periods of ball bearings operating under light loads at high speeds and elevated temperatures. Scope 1.1 This …
ASTM D3335 – Standard Test Method for Low Concentrations of Lead, Cadmium, and Cobalt in Paint by Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy Description: Significance and Use 4.1 The permissible level of heavy metals in certain coatings is specified by governmental regulatory agencies. This test method provides a fully documented procedure for determining low concentrations of lead, cadmium, and …
ASTM D3332 – Standard Test Methods for Mechanical-Shock Fragility of Products, Using Shock Machines Description: Significance and Use 4.1 These test methods are intended to provide the user with data on product shock fragility that can be used in choosing optimum-cushioning materials for shipping containers or for product design modification. Scope 1.1 These test methods cover determination …
ASTM D3330 – Standard Test Method for Peel Adhesion of Pressure-Sensitive Tape Description: Significance and Use 5.1 These test methods are tools for quality assurance use. Given specific pressure-sensitive tape and a requirement in terms of the minimum or maximum peel value expected for this tape, the data from the test can be used in conjunction …
ASTM D3322 – Standard Practice for Testing Primers and Primer Surfacers Over Preformed Metal Description: Significance and Use 4.1 Primers and primer surfacers may be used over many different surfaces top coated with one or more of a variety of coatings and subjected to many kinds of wear and exposure. 4.2 The selection of the tests to …
ASTM D3321 – Standard Test Method for Use of the Refractometer for Field Test Determination of the Freezing Point of Aqueous Engine Coolants Description: Significance and Use 4.1 This practice is commonly used by vehicle service personnel to determine the freezing point, in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit, of aqueous solutions of commercial ethylene and propylene glycol-based …
ASTM D3310 – Standard Test Method for Determining Corrosivity of Adhesive Materials Description: Significance and Use 5.1 This test method is a subjective test in that determinations of degree of corrosivity is based upon a visual inspection for a green discoloration or other evidence of corrosion. Scope 1.1 This test method is intended to determine whether an …
ASTM D3306 – Standard Test Method for Thermal Diffusivity by the Flash Method Description: Scope 1.1 This specification covers the requirements for ethylene glycol or propylene glycol or ethylene glycol containing glycerin base engine coolants used in automobiles or other light-duty service cooling systems. When concentrates are used at 40 % to 60 % concentration (allowance to 70 % …
