1、Designation: D 1122 08Standard Test Method forDensity or Relative Density of Engine Coolant Concentratesand Engine Coolants By The Hydrometer1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 1122; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the

2、 case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This

3、 test method covers the determination of the relativedensity of engine coolant concentrates and engine coolants.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety conc

4、erns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Apparatus5.1 HydrometersHydrometers shall be of glass, graduatedin specific gravity range as listed in Table 1, and shall conformto Specification E 100.5.2 Hydrometer CylinderThe hydrometer cylinder inwhich the sample for the relative density test is confined shallb

8、e made of clear glass and shall be cylindrical in shape. Forconvenience in pouring, it may have a lip on the rim. Theinside diameter of the cylinder shall be at least 25.4 mm (1.0in.) greater than the outside diameter of the hydrometer. Theheight of the cylinder shall be such that the length of thec

9、olumn of sample it contains is greater by at least 25.4 mm (1.0in.) than the portion of the hydrometer which is immersedbeneath the surface of the sample after a state of equilibriumhas been reached.5.3 ThermometerAn ASTM Gravity Thermometer 12C,having a range from 20 to 120C (or 12F having a range

10、from5 to 215F) and conforming to Specification E1, or someother suitable non-mercury containing temperature measuringdevice, such as a thermocouple, capable of operating in thesame temperature range and having equal or better accuracy.5.4 Water BathA water bath capable of maintaining asample tempera

To separate, pour the sample into a 500-mLseparatory funnel, allow to stand for3hatroom temperaturebut not below 20C (68F), and then draw off the lower layer.7.2 If the original coolant is homogeneous, no separationwill be required.7.3 Cool the homogeneous sample or the separated lowerlayer sampl

Pour the sample into theclean, dry hydrometer cylinder without splashing, so as toreduce to a minimum the formation of air bubbles (see Note 1).1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D15 on EngineCoolants and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D

Remove any airbubbles by touching them with a clean, dry glass rod.7.4 The hydrometer is read in the following ways: If thesample is sufficiently transparent, p

19、lace the eye slightly belowthe level of the liquid and slowly raise it until the surface of thesample changes from a distorted ellipse to a straight linecutting the hydrometer scale. If the sample is opaque, read thepoint on the hydrometer scale to which the sample rises abovethe main surface of the

20、 liquid with the eye placed slightlyabove the plane of the surface of the sample. Correct thisreading by an amount equal to the height to which the samplerises on the hydrometer stem above the main liquid surface.This height will vary for different coolants and differenthydrometers, and the correcti

21、on will depend upon the width ofthe hydrometer scale graduations. Determine the correctionfactor for the hydrometer used by observing the height abovethe main surface of the liquid to which the coolant rises on thehydrometer scale when the hydrometer is immersed in atransparent liquid, such as an et
