  • DYNAMIC VISCOSITY AND DENSITY BY STABINGER VISCOMETER: D7042 DYNAMIC VISCOSITY AND DENSITY BY STABINGER VISCOMETER: D7042EXPLANATIONDensity and viscosity are important properties of petroleum and nonpetroleum liquids. This test method provides concurrent measurements of both dynamic viscosity and density of liquid petroleum products and crude oils. The kinematic ...
  • DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY OF SOLID PITCH AND ASPHALT: D71 DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY OF SOLID PITCH AND ASPHALT: D71This test method determines the relative density by water displacement of hard pitches and asphalts with softening points above 70° C. Whenever possible homogenous natural fragments of sample free of cracks should be used. The use of cast cubes ...
  • DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY OF SOLID PITCH BY PYCNOMETER: D4892 DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY OF SOLID PITCH BY PYCNOMETER: D4892With this test method, density is determined to decimal places that are sufficient for most applications. A more precise measurement can be obtained using Test Methods D71 or D2320. This test method is applicable at a range of room temperatures ...
  • DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY OF SOLID PITCH BY PYCNOMETER: D2320 DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY OF SOLID PITCH BY PYCNOMETER: D2320This test method can be used for the determination of density and specific gravity of pitch that can be handled in fragments.TEST SUMMARYThe sample is weighed and its volume determined by the weight of water displaced in a pycnometer.TEST ...
  • DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY GRAVITY, SPECIFIC: D1298 DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY GRAVITY, SPECIFIC: D1298(Equivalent Test Methods: IP 160, ISO 3675, DIN 51757H, JIS K 2249H, and AFNOR T60-101)EXPLANATIONSee under Gravity, API Test Method D287.TEST SUMMARYThe sample is brought to the prescribed temperature and transferred to a cylinder at approximately ...
  • DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY OF LIQUIDS BY BINGHAM PYCNOMETER: D1217 DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY OF LIQUIDS BY BINGHAM PYCNOMETER: D1217Originally this test method was developed for the determination of density of ASTM Knock Test Reference Fuels with an accuracy of 0.00003 g/mL. Although it is no longer used extensively for that purpose, the method is still useful whenever ...
  • DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY OF LIGHT HYDROCARBONS BY PRESSURE THERMOHYDROMETER: DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY OF LIGHT HYDROCARBONS BY PRESSURE THERMOHYDROMETER: D1657(Equivalent Test Methods: IP 235, ISO 3993, and AFNOR M41-008)EXPLANATIONThis test method covers the determination of the density or relative density of light hydrocarbons including liquid petroleum gas having Reid ...
  • DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY BY DIGITAL METERS: D4052 DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY BY DIGITAL METERS: D4052(Equivalent Test Methods: IP 365, ISO 12185, DIN 51757D, JIS K 2249D, and AFNOR T60-172)EXPLANATIONSee under Gravity, API: Test Method D287. This test method uses an automated digital density meter.TEST SUMMARYA small volume (approximately 0.7 mL) ...
  • DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY GRAVITY, SPECIFIC: D5002 DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY GRAVITY, SPECIFIC: D5002EXPLANATIONThis test method covers the determination of the density or relative density of crude oils that can be handled in a normal fashion as liquids at test temperatures between 15 and 35° C. This test method applies to crude oils with high vapor ...
  • DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY REAL DENSITY OF CALCINED PETROLEUM COKE: D5004 DENSITY AND RELATIVE DENSITY REAL DENSITY OF CALCINED PETROLEUM COKE: D5004TEST SUMMARYThe mass of the sample is determined directly and the volume derived by determining the mass of liquid displaced when the sample is introduced into a pycnometer. Oil or other material sprayed on calcined petroleum ...
