  • CORROSIVENESS OF DIESEL OILS AT 135° C: D6594 CORROSIVENESS OF DIESEL OILS AT 135° C: D6594EXPLANATIONThis test method simulates the corrosion process of non-ferrous metals (particularly alloys of lead and copper) in diesel lubricants. The corrosion process under investigation is believed to be induced primarily by inappropriate lubricant chemistry ...
  • CORROSION OF SOLID FILM LUBRICANTS: D2649 CORROSION OF SOLID FILM LUBRICANTS: D2649EXPLANATIONThis test method evaluates the corrosion characteristics of dry solid film lubricants under conditions of high humidity. Surfaces are examined for signs of corrosion, which is an indication of potential field failure.TEST SUMMARYAn aluminum panel with ...
  • CORROSIVENESS TO COPPER FROM PETROLEUM PRODUCTS: D7095 CORROSIVENESS TO COPPER FROM PETROLEUM PRODUCTS: D7095EXPLANATIONCrude petroleum contains sulfur compounds, most of which are removed during refining. However, of the remaining sulfur compounds can have a corroding action on various metals, including copper, and this corrosivity is not necessarily related ...
  • COPPER CORROSION FROM LUBRICATING GREASE: D4048 COPPER CORROSION FROM LUBRICATING GREASE: D4048EXPLANATIONThis test method measures the tendency of lubricating grease to corrode copper under specific static conditions. It can help in predicting possible chemical attack on lubricating parts such as bearings containing copper or copper alloys. Such ...
  • COPPER STRIP CORROSION BY LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM GASES: D1838 COPPER STRIP CORROSION BY LIQUEFIED PETROLEUM GASES: D1838EXPLANATIONCopper corrosion limits provide assurance that difficulties will not be experienced in deterioration of the copper and copper-alloy fittings and connections that are commonly used in many types of utilization, storage, and transportation ...
  • COPPER CORROSION: D849 COPPER CORROSION: D849TEST SUMMARYA polished copper strip is immersed in 200 mL of specimen in a flask with a condenser and placed in boiling water for 30 min. At the end of this period, the copper strip is removed and compared with the ASTM copper strip corrosion standards.TEST PRECISIONThis is a pass-fail ...
  • COPPER CORROSION: D130 COPPER CORROSION: D130(Equivalent Test Methods: IP 154, ISO 2160, DIN 51759, JIS K 2513, and AFNOR M07-015)GENERALThese test methods determine the corrosiveness to copper of various gasolines, fuels, lubricating oils or other hydrocarbons. Most sulfur compounds in petroleum are removed during refining. ...
  • COPPER IN JET FUELS BY GRAPHITE FURNACE ATOMIC ABSORPTION SPECTROMETRY: D6732 COPPER IN JET FUELS BY GRAPHITE FURNACE ATOMIC ABSORPTION SPECTROMETRY: D6732EXPLANATIONAt high temperatures aviation turbine fuels can oxidize and produce insoluble deposits that are detrimental to aircraft propulsion systems. Very low copper levels in excess of 50 μg / kg can significantly accelerate ...
  • COOLING CHARACTERISTICS OF QUENCH OILS BY COOLING CURVE ANALYSIS: D6200 COOLING CHARACTERISTICS OF QUENCH OILS BY COOLING CURVE ANALYSIS: D6200EXPLANATIONThis test method provides a cooling time versus temperature pathway which is directly proportional to physical properties such as the hardness obtainable upon quenching of a metal. These results may be used as a guide in ...
  • CONRADSON CARBON RESIDUE COKING VALUE OF TAR AND PITCH: D2416 CONRADSON CARBON RESIDUE COKING VALUE OF TAR AND PITCH: D2416EXPLANATIONThis test method is useful for indicating the relative coke-forming propensities and for evaluating and characterizing tars and pitches. This test method can also be used as one element in establishing the uniformity of shipments ...
