ASTM Standards

1.1 This test method covers the determination, without reference to a material paint standard, of the hiding power of air dry coatings with Y tristimulus values greater than 15 %.With appropriate modification, it can also be used to test baking finishes. 1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No […]

1.1 This guide covers three procedures for determining the susceptibility of organic-coated metal substrates to formation of filiform corrosion. 1.2 This guide is limited to the determination of whether filiform corrosion will occur between the organic coating and substrate.

1.1 This test method covers the estimation of the equlib-rium solubility of several common gases encountered in the aerospace industry in hydrocarbon liquids. These include petroleum fractions with densities in the range from 0.63 to 0.90 at 288 K (59°F). The solubilities can be estimated over the temperature range 228 K (-50°F) to 423 K

1.1 These test methods cover the measurement of the relative degree of openness or degree of fiberization of milled asbestos fiber by air permeability instruments.

1.1 This test method covers the determination of the coking value of tar and pitch having an ash content not over 0.5 % as determined by Test Method D2415. 1.2 Coking values by this test method are practically the same as those obtained by Test Method D189, but results are more reproducible. The apparatus used

1.1 This specification covers polyethylene (PE) pipe made in standard inside dimension ratios (SIDR) and pressure rated for water (see appendix). Included are requirements for PE compounds and requirements and test methods for workmanship, dimensions, elevated temperature sustained pressure, burst pressure, and marking.

1.1 This test method covers the determination of the com-pressibility of sole leather. This test method does not apply to wet blue. 1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not

1.1 This test method (1, 2, 3)2 is intended for the numerical estimation of dirt in paper or paperboard in terms of equivalent black area. This test method is satisfactory only for the estimation of visual dirtiness and it may be entirely inadequate when the grittiness or other nonvisual effects of dirt are of importance.

1.1 This test method covers the measurement of the relative evaporation time of halogenated organic solvents and their admixtures. This test method is not applicable in the presence of excessive drafts or high-velocity air currents. 1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included

1.1 This test method covers the measurement of density of paints, inks, varnishes, lacquers, and components thereof, other than pigments, when in fluid form. 1.2 For higher precision when working with nonpigmented materials (drying oils, varnishes, resins and related materials), Test Method D1963 can be used to determine specific gravity and, thence, density.
