7、ned.4. Significance and Use4.1 The United Nations Committee of Experts on the Transport of Dangerous Goods in their recommended regulations placematerials having a flash point below 23C (73.5F) in Packing Group II. However, if viscous substances such as paint and relatedcoatings, adhesives, polishes

8、, etc., meet certain requirements, they can be placed in Group III along with materials having a flashpoint between 23 and 60.5C (73.5 and 140F). One of the requirements is that less than 3 % of clear liquid separates from thebulk of the material when subjected to this test method.4.2 At the present

9、 time most international regulatory bodies such as the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) andthe International Maritime Organization (IMO) use the U.N. Recommendations. It is anticipated that most national transportationregulatory bodies will adopt the U.N. Recommendations as their reg

Conditioning7.1 Store the sample or a representative portion at a constant temperature of 23 6 2C (73.5 6 3.5F) until the sample reachesa un

17、iform temperature of 23C (73.5F).8. Procedure8.1 Thoroughly stir the sample to obtain uniform consistency and, in the case of materials containing particles, uniformdispersion of these particles.8.2 Immediately pour 100 mL of the sample into the graduated cylinder. Insert a stopper, then leave the c

18、ylinder undisturbedat 23C (73.5 6 3.5F) for 24 h.8.3 After 24 h, measure the volume of any upper separated layer and determine the percent of the separated layer compared tothe total volume of the specimen.9. Calculation9.1 Calculate the volume percent of the clear upper liquid layer Pc as follows:P
