  • VOLATILES MATTER IN PETROLEUM COKE: ASTM D4421 VOLATILES MATTER IN PETROLEUM COKE: ASTM D4421EXPLANATIONThe volatile matter in petroleum coke affects the density of coke particles and can affect artifacts produced from further processing of the coke. The volatile matter can be used in estimating the calorific value of coke. Samples having a thermal ...
  • VOLATILES MATTER IN GREEN PETROLEUM COKE: ASTM D6374 VOLATILES MATTER IN GREEN PETROLEUM COKE: ASTM D6374EXPLANATIONThe volatile matter of petroleum coke affects the density of coke particles and can affect artifacts produced from further processing of the coke. The volatile matter can be used in estimating the calorific value of coke. This test method ...
  • VOLATILES CONTAMINANTS IN USED ENGINE OILS: ASTM D3607 VOLATILES CONTAMINANTS IN USED ENGINE OILS: ASTM D3607EXPLANATIONThe removal of volatile materials such as gasoline dilution from used engine oils is especially important if the mechanical shear stability or oxidative stability of the oil is being monitored by measuring a kinematic viscosity change in ...
  • VISCOSITY-TEMPERATURE RELATIONSHIP OF USED AND SOOT CONTAINING ENGINE OILS: ASTM VISCOSITY-TEMPERATURE RELATIONSHIP OF USED AND SOOT CONTAINING ENGINE OILS: ASTM D7110EXPLANATIONThe low temperature, low shear viscometric behavior of an engine oil, whether new, used, or sooted, determines whether the oil will flow to the sump inlet screen, then to the oil pump, then to the sites in ...
  • VISCOSITY, SHEAR OF COAL-TAR AND PETROLEUM PITCHES: ASTM D5018 VISCOSITY, SHEAR OF COAL-TAR AND PETROLEUM PITCHES: ASTM D5018EXPLANATIONThis test method is useful as one element in establishing the uniformity of shipments. Viscosity is valuable for rheological characterization of binder pitches. Binder pitch imparts consistency to carbonaceous mixes and affects ...
  • VISCOSITY, SAYBOLT UNIVERSAL VISCOSITY: ASTM D2161 VISCOSITY, SAYBOLT UNIVERSAL VISCOSITY: ASTM D2161EXPLANATIONThis practice covers the conversion tables and equations for converting kinematic viscosity in centistokes (cSt) at any temperature to Saybolt Universal viscosity in Saybolt Universal seconds (SUS) at the same temperature and for converting ...
  • ROTATIONAL VISCOSITY OF HEAVY DUTY DIESEL DRAIN OILS AT 100° C: ASTM D6895 ROTATIONAL VISCOSITY OF HEAVY DUTY DIESEL DRAIN OILS AT 100° C: ASTM D6895EXPLANATIONRotational viscosity measurements allow the determination of the non-Newtonian, shear thinning property of drain oil. Rotational viscosity values can be compared at a shear rate of 100 s(−1) by this test method. This ...
  • LOW TEMPERATURE VISCOSITY OF DRIVE LINE LUBRICANTS IN A CONSTANT SHEER STRESS VI LOW TEMPERATURE VISCOSITY OF DRIVE LINE LUBRICANTS IN A CONSTANT SHEER STRESS VISCOMETER: ASTM D6821EXPLANATIONViscosity of drive line lubricants at low temperature is critical for both gear lubrication and the circulation of the fluid in automatic transmissions. For gear oils, the issue is whether the ...
  • VISCOSITY, SAYBOLT: ASTM D88 VISCOSITY, SAYBOLT: ASTM D88EXPLANATIONThis test method covers the empirical procedures for determining the Saybolt Universal or Saybolt Furol viscosities of petroleum products at specified temperature between 21 and 99° C (70 and 210° F).Test Methods ASTM D445 and ASTM D2170 are preferred for the ...
  • VISCOSITY, KINEMATIC OF VOLATILE AND REACTIVE LIQUIDS: ASTM D4486 VISCOSITY, KINEMATIC OF VOLATILE AND REACTIVE LIQUIDS: ASTM D4486EXPLANATIONKinematic viscosity is a physical property that is of importance in the design of systems in which flowing liquids are used or handled. This test method is applicable to transparent Newtonian liquids that because of their reactivity, ...
