1.1 This test method covers the gas chromalographic pro-cedure for the quantitative determination of organic oxygenates in C2, C3, C4, and C5 matrices by multidimensional gas chromatography and fame ionization detection. This test method is applicable when the hydrocarbon matrices have a final boiling point not greater than 200 °C. Oxygenate com-pounds include, but are […]

1.1 This test method covers a procedure for determining the friction and wear behavior of grease lubricated plastic socket suspension joints, for validation of suspension joint greases and quality inspection for those greases under high-frequency linear-oscillation motion using the SRV test machine. 1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard.

1.1 This test method covers the determination of the strength behavior of cylindrical specimens of frozen soil,subjected to uniaxial compression under controlled rates of strain. It specifies the apparatus, instrumentation, and proce-dures for determining the stress-strain-time, or strength versus strain rate relationships for frozen soils under deviatoric creep conditions.

1.1 This test method covers the determination of puncture properties of plastic films, over a range of test velocities. 1.1.1 ASTM Terminology Standard D883 has defined film as having a thickness not greater than 0.25 mm. Plastic materials having a thickness above this limit are not to be excluded from use unless shown to be

1.1 This test method covers the laboratory procedure for determining the relative mileage of news inks on newsprint.The test method utilizes a proofing press, analytical balance and a reflection densitometer. 1.2 This test method is intended for black oil-based news inks that dry by penetration (that is, letterpress or web offset) and for which a

1.1 This test method describes the procedures to determine the gassing characteristics due to thermal stress at 120°C of insulating liquids specifically and without the influence of other electrical apparatus materials or electrical stresses. This test method was primarily designed for insulating mineral oil. It can be applied to other insulating liquids in which dissolved

1.1 This test method covers the determination of the corro-siveness to copper of aviation gasoline, aviation turbine fuel,automotive gasoline, natural gasoline, or other hydrocarbons having a vapor pressure no greater than 124 kPa (18 psi),cleaners (for example, Stoddard solvent), kerosine, diesel fuel,distillate fuel oil, lubricating oil, and other petroleum products.

1.1 This practice covers the evaluation of the degree to which a latex paint resists the formation of efflorescence and alkali burnout on the exposed paint surface. 1.2 This practice is designed primarily to relate efflores-cence originating in the substrate to the deposit appearing on the surface of latex paints. This practice relates chiefly to

1.1 This test method covers the measurement of movement due to cyclic thermal exposure of SBS (styrene-butadiene-styrene)-modified bituminous sheets with a factory-applied metal foil surface. 1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The values in parentheses are for information only.

1.1 This practice covers the sorting of natural rubber bales of TSR10 or TSR20 in the factory according to their predicted processing performance based on differences in viscoelastic properties. 1.2 This practice determines which bales should be used in factory compounds which benefit from using “soft” natural rubber versus which work better with “hard” natural
