A superscriptepsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies o

3、f the U.S. Department of Defense.INTRODUCTIONThis flash point and fire point test method is a dynamic method and depends on definite rates oftemperature increases to control the precision of the test method. Its primary use is for viscousmaterials having flash point of 79 C (175 F) and above. It is

4、also used to determine fire point, whichis a temperature above the flash point, at which the test specimen will support combustion for aminimum of 5 s. Do not confuse this test method with Test Method D4206, which is a sustainedburning test, open cup type, at a specific temperature of 49 C (120 F).F

5、lash point values are a function of the apparatus design, the condition of the apparatus used, andthe operational procedure carried out. Flash point can therefore only be defined in terms of a standardtest method, and no general valid correlation can be guaranteed between results obtained by differe

6、nttest methods, or with test apparatus different from that specified.1. Scope*1.1 This test method describes the determination of the flashpoint and fire point of petroleum products by a manualCleveland open cup apparatus or an automated Cleveland opencup apparatus.NOTE 1The precisions for fire poin

7、t were not determined in thecurrent interlaboratory program. Fire point is a parameter that is notcommonly specified, although in some cases, knowledge of this flamma-bility temperature may be desired.1.2 This test method is applicable to all petroleum productswith flash points above 79 C (175 F) an

8、d below 400 C(752 F) except fuel oils.NOTE 2This test method may occasionally be specified for thedetermination of the fire point of a fuel oil. For the determination of theflash points of fuel oils, use Test Method D93. Test Method D93 shouldalso be used when it is desired to determine the possible

9、 presence of smallbut significant concentrations of lower flash point substances that mayescape detection by Test Method D92. Test Method D1310 can beemployed if the flash point is known to be below 79 C (175 F).1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard.1.3.1 ExceptionThe v

10、alues given in parentheses are forinformation only.1.4 WARNINGMercury has been designated by manyregulatory agencies as a hazardous substance that can causeserious medical issues. Mercury, or its vapor, has been dem-onstrated to be hazardous to health and corrosive to materials.Use Caution when hand

11、ling mercury and mercury-containingproducts. See the applicable product Safety Data Sheet (SDS)for additional information. The potential exists that sellingmercury or mercury-containing products, or both, is prohibitedby local or national law. Users must determine legality of salesin their location.

12、1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety, health, and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use

Summary of Test Method4.1 Approximat

24、ely 70 mL of test specimen is filled into atest cup. The temperature of the test specimen is increasedrapidly at first and then at a slower constant rate as the flashpoint is approached. At specified intervals, a test flame ispassed across the cup. The flash point is the lowest liquidtemperature at

Todetermine the fire point, the test is continued until the appli-cation of the test flame causes the test specimen to ignite andsustain burning for a minimum of 5 s.5. Significance and Use5.1 The flas

26、h point is one measure of the tendency of the testspecimen to form a flammable mixture with air under con-trolled laboratory conditions. It is only one of a number ofproperties that should be considered in assessing the overallflammability hazard of a material.5.2 Flash point is used in shipping and

27、 safety regulations todefine flammable and combustible materials. Consult theparticular regulation involved for precise definitions of theseclassifications.5.3 Flash point can indicate the possible presence of highlyvolatile and flammable materials in a relatively nonvolatile ornonflammable material

28、. For example, an abnormally low flashpoint on a test specimen of engine oil can indicate gasolinecontamination.5.4 This test method shall be used to measure and describethe properties of materials, products, or assemblies in responseto heat and a test flame under controlled laboratory conditionsand

29、 shall not be used to describe or appraise the fire hazard orfire risk of materials, products, or assemblies under actual fireconditions. However, results of this test method may be used aselements of a fire risk assessment that takes into account all ofthe factors that are pertinent to an assessmen

30、t of the fire hazardof a particular end use.5.5 The fire point is one measure of the tendency of the testspecimen to support combustion.6.

38、en from the test cup anddrying the test cup. Some commonly used solvents are tolueneand acetone. (WarningToluene, acetone, and many solventsare flammable. Health hazard. Dispose of solvents and wastematerial in accordance with local regulations.)8. Sampling8.1 Obtain a sample in accordance with the

39、instructionsgiven in Practices D140, D4057, D4177 or E300.8.2 At least 70 mL of sample is required for each test. Referto Practice D4057.8.3 Erroneously high flash points may be obtained if pre-cautions are not taken to avoid the loss of volatile material. Donot open containers unnecessarily; this w

40、ill prevent loss ofvolatile material and possible introduction of moisture. Do notmake a transfer of the sample unless the sample temperature isat least 56 C (100 F) below the expected flash point. Whenpossible, flash point should be the first test performed on asample and the sample should be store

41、d at low temperature.NOTE 3Typical sample storage temperature is normal room tempera-ture or lower.8.4 Do not store samples in gas-permeable containers sincevolatile material may diffuse through the walls of the enclo-sure. Samples in leaky containers are suspect and not a sourceof valid results.8.5

42、 Light hydrocarbons may be present in the form of gases,such as propane or butane, and may not be detected by testingbecause of losses during sampling and filling of the test cup.This is especially evident on heavy residuums or asphalts fromsolvent extraction processes.8.6 Samples of very viscous ma

43、terials can be warmed untilthey are reasonably fluid before they are tested. However, nosample shall be heated more than is absolutely necessary. Itshall never be heated above a temperature of 56 C (100 F)below its expected flash point. When the sample has beenheated above this temperature, allow th

44、e sample to cool until itis at least 56 C (100 F) below the expected flash point beforetransferring.NOTE 4Typically, the sample containers for these types of sampleswill remain closed during the warming process.8.7 Samples containing dissolved or free water can bedehydrated with calcium chloride or

45、by filtering through aqualitative filter paper or a loose plug of dry absorbent cotton.Samples of very viscous materials can be warmed until they arereasonably fluid before they are filtered, but they shall not beheated for prolonged periods or above a temperature of 56 C(100 F) below its expected f

46、lash point.NOTE 5If the sample is suspected of containing volatile contaminants,the treatment described in 8.6 and 8.7 should be omitted.9. Preparation of Apparatus9.1 Support the manual or automated apparatus on a levelsteady surface, such as a table.9.2 Tests are to be performed in a draft-free ro

47、om orcompartment. Tests made in a laboratory hood or in anylocation where drafts occur are not to be relied upon.NOTE 6A draft shield is recommended to prevent drafts fromdisturbing the vapors above the test cup. This shield should cover at leastthree sides of the test cup vicinity. Some apparatus m

48、ay already include abuilt-in draft shield.NOTE 7With some samples whose vapors or products of pyrolysis areobjectionable, it is permissible to place the apparatus along with a shieldinto a hood, the draft of which is adjusted so that the vapors may bewithdrawn without causing air currents over the t

49、est cup during the final56 C (100 F) rise in temperature prior to the flash point.9.3 Wash the test cup with the cleaning solvent to removeany test specimen or traces of gum or residue remaining froma previous test. If any deposits of carbon are present, theyshould be removed with a material such as a very fine grade ofsteel wool. Ensure that the test cup is completely clean and drybefore using again. If necessary, flush the test cup with coldwater and dry for a few minutes over an open flame or a hotplate to remove the last traces
