  • CRYSTALLINE SIZE OF CALCINED PETROLEUM COKE BY X-RAY DIFFRACTION: ASTM D5187 CRYSTALLINE SIZE OF CALCINED PETROLEUM COKE BY X-RAY DIFFRACTION: ASTM D5187EXPLANATIONCrystallinity of petroleum coke is a general measure of quality affecting suitability for end use and is a function of the heat treatment. The crystallite thickness is used to determine the extent of such heat treatment, ...
  • CORROSION-PREVENTIVE PROPERTIES OF LUBRICATING GREASES (EMCOR TEST): ASTM D6138 CORROSION-PREVENTIVE PROPERTIES OF LUBRICATING GREASES (EMCOR TEST): ASTM D6138EXPLANATIONThis test method is used to assess the ability of grease to prevent corrosion in rolling bearings operated in the presence of distilled water, NaCl solution, or synthetic sea water. It uses grease-lubricated ball ...
  • CORROSION-PREVENTING PROPERTIES OF LUBRICATING GREASES: ASTM D5969 CORROSION-PREVENTING PROPERTIES OF LUBRICATING GREASES: ASTM D5969EXPLANATIONThis test method differentiates the relative corrosion-preventive capabilities of lubricating greases under the test conditions using grease lubricated tapered roller bearings exposed to various concentrations of dilute synthetic ...
  • CORROSION PREVENTIVE PROPERTIES OF LUBRICATING GREASES: ASTM D1743 CORROSION PREVENTIVE PROPERTIES OF LUBRICATING GREASES: ASTM D1743EXPLANATIONThis test method differentiates the relative corrosion-preventing properties of lubricating greases using grease-lubricated tapered roller bearings stored under wet conditions. This test method is based on CRC Technique L 41 ...
  • CORROSIVENESS OF LUBRICATING FLUID TO BIMETALLIC COUPLE: ASTM D6547 CORROSIVENESS OF LUBRICATING FLUID TO BIMETALLIC COUPLE: ASTM D6547EXPLANATIONCorrosiveness of a fluid to a bimetallic couple is one of the properties used to evaluate hydraulic or lubricating fluids. It is an indicator of the compatibility of a fluid with a brass on steel galvanic couple at ambient ...
  • CORROSION PREVENTIVE PROPERTIES CORROSIVENESS AND OXIDATION STABILITY OF OILS: A CORROSION PREVENTIVE PROPERTIES CORROSIVENESS AND OXIDATION STABILITY OF OILS: ASTM D4636EXPLANATIONThis test method is a combination of Federal Test Methods 5307.2 and 5308.7. It is used to test hydraulic oils, aircraft turbine engine lubricants, and other highly refined oils to determine their resistance ...
  • CORROSIVENESS OF DIESEL OILS AT 135° C: ASTM D6594 CORROSIVENESS OF DIESEL OILS AT 135° C: ASTM 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 ...
  • CORROSION OF SOLID FILM LUBRICANTS: ASTM D2649 CORROSION OF SOLID FILM LUBRICANTS: ASTM 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 ...
  • CORROSIVENESS TO COPPER FROM PETROLEUM PRODUCTS: ASTM D7095 CORROSIVENESS TO COPPER FROM PETROLEUM PRODUCTS: ASTM 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 ...
  • COPPER CORROSION FROM LUBRICATING GREASE: ASTM D4048 COPPER CORROSION FROM LUBRICATING GREASE: ASTM 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. ...
