Title
Standard Test Methods for Solid Filling and Treating Compounds Used for Electrical Insulation
ASTM International
Publication Date:
May 1, 2007
Scope:
These test methods cover physical and electrical tests for solid
filling and treating compounds used for electrical insulation which
are fusible to a liquid without significant chemical reaction.
Compounds that are converted to the solid state by polymerization,
condensation, or other chemical reaction are not included in these
test methods.
These test methods are designed primarily for asphaltic or
bituminous compounds, waxes, and fusible resins, or mixtures
thereof, although some of these methods are applicable to semisolid
types such as petrolatums. Special methods more suitable for
hydrocarbon waxes are contained in Test Methods D 1168.
Provide adequate ventilation when these tests involve
heating.
The test methods appear in the following sections:
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the
standard. The values given 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. For specific hazard statements, see
12.1 and 31.5.
NOTE 1—There is no similar or equivalent IEC or ISO
standard.
*A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this
standard.
