Title
Standard Test Methods for Specific Gravity, Apparent, of Liquid Industrial Chemicals
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Jun 15, 1995
Scope:
These test methods cover the determination of the specific gravity,
apparent, of liquid industrial
chemicals. Two test methods are covered as follows:
Test Method A, specific gravity, apparent, by means of a hydrometer.
Test Method B, specific gravity, apparent, by means of a pycnometer.
NOTE 1 - Test Method D 4052 describes an instrumental procedure.
In common usage the term specific gravity, apparent, is understood to
mean specific gravity. Since
this test method is to be in conformity with Terminology E 12, all
terms reading specific gravity
were changed to specific gravity, apparent, without altering the
meaning of specific gravity and,
the term apparent could be dropped in everyday operations after
establishing the use term
equivalency.
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.
Review the current Materials Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for detailed
information concerning
toxicity, first aid procedures, handling, and safety precautions.
