The Cleveland Open Cup (COC) Tester is used to determine the flash point and fire point of petroleum products under controlled laboratory conditions according to ASTM D92. The method is particularly intended for petroleum products with flash points above 79°C (175°F) and below 400°C (752°F), subject to the applicability limitations specified by the standard. What…
How can we evaluate whether polyethylene has been adequately crosslinked? One of the most widely used approaches is to determine its Gel Content and, when required, its Swell Ratio. ASTM D2765 describes test methods for determining the insoluble fraction produced by crosslinking in ethylene plastics. The methods are applicable to crosslinked polyethylene materials of different…
11.1 ObjectThis test method is intended to establish the ability of a fibre optic cable to withstand mechanical twisting. The primary purpose of this procedure is to measure any variation in the optical power transmittance of a fibre when the cable is subjected to torsional forces external to the cable jacket. A secondary purpose is…
