8、ratory Study toDetermine the Precision of a Test Method2.2 ASTM Adjunct:3All-glass apparatus for corrosion test (2 drawings)3. 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 (19
9、0 F). The corrosion-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. Signi
10、ficance and Use4.1 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. Th
11、e actual ser-vice value of an HTF formulation can be determined by morecomprehensive evaluation and field tests, agreed betweencustomer and supplier.5.
