Title
Standard Test Methods for Specific Gravity of Water and Brine
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Aug 10, 2003
Scope:
These test methods cover the determination of the specific gravity of
water and brine free of
separable oil, as follows:
Test Methods A and B are applicable to clear waters or those
containing only a moderate amount of
particulate matter. Test Method B is preferred for samples of sea
water or brines and is more
sensitive than Test Method D which has the same general application.
Test Method C is intended for
samples of water containing mud or sludge.
It is the user's responsibility to ensure the validity of these test
methods for waters of untested
matrices.
The test method was tested at 22°C over a range, shown in Tables
1-4, of 1.0252 through 1.2299;
all data were corrected to 15.6°C (60°F).
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
