ASTM D1889 – Standard Test Method for Turbidity of Water (Withdrawn 2007) Description: Scope 1.1 This test method covers the determination of turbidity in water and wastewater. 1.2 This test method is applicable to the measurement of turbidities in the range from 1.0 to 40 nephelometric turbidity units (NTU). 1.3 Higher turbidities may be measured …
ASTM D1883 – Standard Test Method for California Bearing Ratio (CBR) of Laboratory-Compacted Soils Description: Significance and Use 5.1 This test method can be used in a number of engineering applications such as to evaluate the potential strength of subgrade, subbase, and base course materials, including recycled materials for use in the design of flexible roads …
ASTM D1882 – Standard Test Method for Effect of Cooling System Chemical Solutions on Organic Finishes for Automotive Vehicles Description: Significance and Use 4.1 This test method will distinguish between cooling system chemical solutions that do or do not have a tendency to change the surface appearance when applied to organic finishes used on vehicles. Such …
ASTM D1881 – Standard Test Method for Foaming Tendencies of Engine Coolants in Glassware Description: Significance and Use 5.1 The test method generally will distinguish coolants that have a tendency to foam excessively from those that are suitable for further evaluation to determine performance in actual service. NOTE 1: In use, the foaming tendency of a coolant …
ASTM D1876 – Standard Test Method for Peel Resistance of Adhesives (T-Peel Test) Description: Abstract This test method is primarily intended for determining the relative peel resistance of adhesive bonds between flexible adherends by means of a T-type specimen using a tension testing machine. The bent, unbonded ends of the test specimen shall be clamped …
ASTM D1875 – Standard Test Method for Density of Adhesives in Fluid Form Description: Significance and Use 4.1 This test method is particularly applicable where the fluid has too high a viscosity or where a component is too volatile for a specific gravity balance determination. Scope 1.1 This test method covers the measurement of density (weight per …
ASTM D187 – Standard Test Method for Burning Quality of Kerosene Description: Significance and Use 5.1 Since the information provided by this test method is largely qualitative in nature, specific limits covering the following characteristics are required in referring to this test method in specifications for kerosene: 5.1.1 Duration of the test: 16 h is understood, if not …
ASTM D1857 – Standard Test Method for Fusibility of Coal and Coke Ash Description: Significance and Use 5.1 The design of most coal combustion and coal conversion equipment anticipates that the ash either remain solid or assume some degree of fluidity, depending on the particular design. Ash fusibility temperatures help predict whether the ash will perform …
ASTM D1849 – Standard Test Method for Package Stability of Paint Description: Abstract This test method covers the procedures for testing the package stability of liquid paint by determining the change in consistency and certain other properties of the solvent- or water-reducible type paint when stored above a certain temperature. Test equipment include spatula, viscometer, …
ASTM D1840 – Standard Test Method for Naphthalene Hydrocarbons in Aviation Turbine Fuels by Ultraviolet Spectrophotometry Description: Significance and Use 5.1 This test method for naphthalene hydrocarbons is one of a group of tests used to assess the combustion characteristics of aviation turbine fuels of the kerosene boiling range. The naphthalene hydrocarbon content is determined because …
