ASTM D 4052 Document Information:
Title
Standard Test Method for Density and Relative Density of Liquids by Digital Density Meter
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Apr 10, 1996
Scope:
This test method covers the determination of the density or relative
density of petroleum
distillates and viscous oils that can be handled in a normal fashion
as liquids at test
temperatures between 15 and 35°C. Its application is restricted to
liquids with vapor pressures
below 600 mm Hg (80 kPa) and viscosities below about 15 000 cSt
(mm²/s) at the temperature of
test.
This test method should not be applied to samples so dark in color
that the absence of air bubbles
in the sample cell cannot be established with certainty. For the
determination of density in crude
oil samples use Test Method D 5002.
The accepted units of measure for density are grams per millilitre or
kilograms per cubic metre.
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. For
specific hazard statements, see 7.4, 7.5, and 9.1.
