ASTM D2163 Hydrocarbons In LPG By GC
The hydrocarbon component distribution of liquefied petroleum gases and propene mixtures is often required for end-use sale of this material. Applications such as chemical feed stocks or fuel require precise compositional data to ensure uniform quality. Trace amounts of some hydrocarbon impurities in these materials can have adverse effects on their use and processing.

ASTM D7111 ICP for Middle Distillate Fuels
Trace elemental analysis is used to indicate the level of contamination of middle distillate fuels. Trace metals in turbine fuels can cause corrosion and deposition on turbine components at elevated temperatures. Some diesel fuels have specification limit requirements for trace metals to guard against engine deposits. Trace level copper in middle distillate aviation turbine fuel can significantly accelerate thermal instability of the fuel leading to oxidation and production of detrimental insoluble deposits in the engine.

ASTM D942 Oxidation Stability Of Lubricating Greases
This apparatus measures the change in pressure resulting from consumption of oxygen by oxidation and gain in pressure due to formation of volatile oxidation by products. It predicts neither the stability of greases under dynamic service conditions, nor the stability of greases stored in containers for long periods, nor the stability of films of greases on bearings and motor parts. It should

ASTM D4340 Corrosion Of Cast Aluminum Alloys In Engine Coolants
It is essential that engine coolants prevent heat-transfer corrosion of aluminum cylinder heads during engine operation. Any corrosion products formed may deposit on interior radiator surfaces, reducing heat-transfer efficiency of the radiator. Overheating and boil-over of the cooling system may then occur

ASTM D1177 Automatic Freezing Point Of Aqueous Engine Coolants
This tester involves the determination of the time-temperature curve prior to freezing and the determination of the horizontal or flattened portion of the freezing curve. The freezing point is taken as the intersection of projections of the cooling curve and the freezing curve. If the solution supercools, the freezing point is the maximum temperature reached after super cooling

ASTM D3612 Dissolved Gases In Transformer Oil By GC TOGA
Transformer oil is a highly refined mineral oil used in electrical transformers. It has excellent insulating properties, suppresses corona and arcing, and serves as a coolant. In case of electrical errors, the oil breaks down to gases, which identity and content can be related to the type and severity of the electrical fault. This information is very useful in the preventative maintenance program.
