Summary of Test Method3.1 In this test method, specimens of metals typical of thosepresent in HVAC systems are totally immersed in aerated HTFsolutions for 336 h at 88 C (190 F). The corro
9、sion-inhibitiveproperties of the test solution are evaluated on the basis of theweight changes incurred by the specimens. Each test is run intriplicate, and the average weight change is determined foreach metal.Asingle test may occasionally be completely out ofline (see 11.2).4. Significance and Use
10、4.1 This test method will generally distinguish betweenHTFs that are definitely deleterious from the corrosion stand-point and those that are suitable for further evaluation.However, the results of this test method cannot stand alone asevidence of satisfactory corrosion inhibition. The actual ser-vi
11、ce value of an HTF formulation can be determined by morecomprehensive evaluation and field tests, agreed betweencustomer and supplier.5. Apparatus5.1 Container, a 1000-mL, tall-form, spoutless beaker, madeof heat-resistant glass, for containing the HTF solution and testspecimens. The beaker shall be
12、 tightly closed with a No. 15rubber stopper, having drill holes to accommodate a watercondenser, an aerator tube, and a thermometer as shown in Fig.1. Optionally, an all-glass apparatus may be used.41This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D15 on EngineCoolants and Related Fluid

It is recommended thatthe metal specimen arrangement be modified by replacing thecopper specimen with
38、the high lead solder specimen andarranging specimens in the bundle as follows:High LeadSolderBrassAlloy Grade30A or 30BSteel Cast IronCastAluminumUse of alternate specimens and metal specimens arrange-ments shall be noted in the test report.7. Preparation of Test Specimens7.1 Sand the cast iron and
39、cast aluminum specimens on the25.4 by 50.8-mm (1 by 2-in.) cut surfaces with “coarse” grade(No. 1) emery cloth. Remove any burrs from coupon edges andhole. Scrub all specimens vigorously, using a moistened bristlebrush and ground pumice powder or fine silicon carbide grituntil the entire metal area
40、is bright, shiny, and free from anyvisible oxide film or tarnish.7.2 Rinse the specimens thoroughly with tap water; thenrinse with acetone, dry, and weigh to the nearest 1 mg. Castaluminum specimens should be dried in a 100 C oven for 1 h,to a constant weight, prior to recording the weight.NOTE 3If
