The required bathtemperatures may be obtained by refrigeration if available, otherwise by suitable cooling mixtures. Cooling mixtures commonlyused for bath temperatures down to those shown are in Table 1.7. Reagents and
38、 Materials7.1 The following solvents of technical grade are appropriate for low-temperature bath media.7.1.1 Acetone, (WarningExtremely flammable).7.1.2 Alcohol, Ethanol (WarningFlammable).7.1.3 Alcohol, Methanol (WarningFlammable.

When necessary, heat the specimen in a bath until it is just sufficientlyfluid to pour into the test jar.NOTE 3It is known that some materials, when heated to a t
40、emperature higher than 45 C during the preceding 24 h, do not yield the same pour pointresults as when they are kept at room temperature for 24 h prior to testing. Examples of materials which are known to show sensitivity to thermal historyare residual fuels, black oils, and cylinder stocks.8.1.1 Sa
41、mples of residual fuels, black oils, and cylinder stocks which have been heated to a temperature higher than 45 Cduring the preceding 24 h, or when the thermal history of these sample types is not known, shall be kept at room temperature for24 h before testing. Samples which are known by the operato
42、r not to be sensitive to thermal history need not be kept at roomtemperature for 24 h before testing.TABLE 1 Cooling Mixtures and Bath TemperaturesCooling Mixture BathTemperatureIce and water 0 C 1.5 CCrushed ice and sodium chloride crystals orAcetone or petroleum naphtha, or methanol or ethanol (se

45、e types is contained in a researchreport.68.2 In the case of pour points above 36 C, use a higher range thermometer such as IP 63C or ASTM 61C. Close the test jarwith the cork carrying the test thermometer (6.2). Adjust the position of the cork and thermometer so the cork fits tightly, thethermomete
46、r and the jar are coaxial, and the thermometer is immersed to the correct depth. For liquid-in-glass, the thermometerbulb should be immersed so the beginning of the capillary is 3 mm below the surface of the specimen. For digital contactthermometers, the probe should be immersed so the end of the pr
47、obe is 10 mm to 15 mm below the surface of the specimen.8.3 For the measurement of pour point, subject the specimen in the test jar to the following preliminary treatment:8.3.1 Specimens Having Pour Points Above 33 CHeat the specimen without stirring to 9 C above the expected pour point,but to at le
48、ast 45 C, in a bath maintained at 12 C above the expected pour point, but at least 48 C. Transfer the test jar to a bathmaintained at 24 C 6 1.5 C and commence observations for pour point. When using a liquid bath, ensure that the liquid levelis between the fill mark on the test jar and the top of t
49、he test jar.8.3.2 Specimens Having Pour Points of 33 C and BelowHeat the specimen without stirring to at least 45 C in a bathmaintained at 48 C 6 1.5 C. Transfer the test jar to a bath maintained at 24 C 6 1.5 C. When using a liquid bath, ensure thatthe liquid level is between the fill mark on the test jar and the top of the test jar. When the specimen temperature reaches 27 C,remove the high cloud and pour thermometer, and place the low cloud and pour thermometer in position. Tr
