ASTM D 3306 Document Information:
Title
Standard Specification for Glycol Base Engine Coolant for Automobile and Light-Duty Service
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Jan 15, 2008
Scope:
This specification covers the requirements for ethylene glycol
or propylene glycol base engine coolants used in automobiles or
other light duty service cooling systems. When concentrates are
used at 40 to 70 % concentration by volume in water, or when
prediluted glycol base engine coolants (50 volume % minimum) are
used without further dilution, they will function effectively to
provide protection against freezing, boiling, and corrosion.
The coolants governed by this specification are categorized as
follows:
NOTE 1—This specification is based on the knowledge of the
performance of engine coolants prepared from new or virgin
ingredients. This specification shall also apply to engine coolants
prepared using glycol generated from recycled or reprocessed used
coolant or reprocessed industrial-source glycol, provided that said
glycol meets the requirements of Specification E 1177. Separate
specifications (D 6471 and D 6472) exist for engine coolants
prepared from recycled or reprocessed used coolant or reprocessed
industrial-source glycol that does not meet the requirements
established in Specification E 1177.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the
standard. The values in parentheses are for information only.
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.
NOTE 2—This specification applies to automobiles and light duty
service. Specifications D 4985 and D 6210 exist for heavy duty
engine service.
