ASTM E 2160 Document Information:
Title
Standard Test Method for Heat of Reaction of Thermally Reactive Materials by Differential Scanning Calorimetry
ASTM International
Publication Date:
May 1, 2004
Scope:
This test method determines the exothermic heat of reaction of
thermally reactive chemicals or
chemical mixtures, using milligram specimen sizes, by differential
scanning calorimetry. Such
reactive materials may include thermally unstable or thermoset
materials.
This test method also determines the extrapolated onset temperature
and peak heat flow temperature
for the exothermic reaction.
This test method may be performed on solids, liquids or slurries.
The applicable temperature range of this method is 25 to 600°C.
SI units are to be regarded as the standard.
There is no ISO method equivalent to this standard.
This standard is related to Test Method E 537 and to NAS 1613, but
provides additional information.
This standard may involve hazardous materials, operations, and
equipment. 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.
