Summary of Test Method4.1 The sample is completely melted by heating to aminimum temperature of 82C (180F), and then cooled undercontrolled conditions to 25C (77F).

Significance and Use5.1 Petrolatum is a purified mixture of semi-solid hydrocar-bons obtained from petroleum and is often described as anunctuous mass. Cone penetration is a means of measurin

Cone penetration valuesmay or may not correlate with end-use functional properties.6. Apparatus6.1 Penetrometer and Cone, as specified in

The oven shall be capable of control-ling the selected temperature to within 62C (65F).6.3 Water Bath, constant-temperature, regulated to 25 60.

12、e sides should not be used, for these permit slight working of thepetrolatum, due to flexing of the sides in handling.7.

16、ate test samples are required.7.3 Melt the sample in an oven maintained at a minimumtemperature of 82 6 2C (180 6 5F) or at a highertemperature if needed to completely melt the petrolatum (seeNote 2). Place the required number of sample containers in theoven along with the sample to bring them up to

17、 the sametemperature. When the sample has melted and comes to theselected temperature, remove the sample and the heatedcontainers and fill the required number of containers to within6mm(14 in.) of their rims. Allow the filled containers to coolin a location free from drafts and at a temperature cont

Then cover and place thesamples in the water bath for2htobring the temperature to 256 0.5C (77 6 1F) before testing.NOTE 2Some petrolatums containing higher melting point waxes mayrequire higher melting and pouring temperatures. If no estimate of themelting

19、 point is available, ensure that the sample is completely molten(appears visually clear) before proceeding. A hot plate may be usedinstead of an oven, provided that the sample temperature is carefullymonitored.8. Procedure8.1 The surface of the sample must not be cut level norworked in any other way

20、, as this may affect the result. If thetemperature of the penetrometer cone (that is, the roomtemperature) varies from 25 by 2C (77 by 3F) or more, adjustthe cone temperature to 25 6 0.5C (77 6 1F) immediatelybefore testing the sample. Frequent adjustment of the conetemperature may be necessary if t

21、he room temperature variesappreciably from 25C (77F).8.2 Place the can of petrolatum on the penetrometer table, solocated that the tip of the penetrometer cone is 25 to 40 mm (1to 112 in.) in from the rim of the container (except forpetrolatums having a penetration greater than 200 (see 8.4).Observe

22、 that the cone is in its “zero” position and adjust eitherthe indicator assembly or the table, dependent on the type ofinstrument, until the tip of the cone just touches the surface ofthe sample. Watching the shadow of the tip is an aid to accuratesetting. Finally, quickly release the plunger and ho

23、ld for 5 60.1 s. Read the total penetration from the scale. Make at leastthree determinations.8.3 With samples having penetrations less than 200, threetests (and sometimes more) may be made in one container byproper spacing. To prevent one test from being affected by thedisturbed area of a previous

24、test the tip of the cone must not beplaced nearer the edge of a previous test than the penetrationdistance of the sample. Some harder petrolatums tend to forma marked depression in the center on solidifying; such samplesshould not be tested in this depression, as the results obtainedmay be different

25、 from those obtained in off-center positions onthe level surface.8.4 With samples having penetrations over 200, make onlyone test in a container and place the cone tip as exactly aspossible at the center of the container.9.

26、tration, ASTM Test Method D937.10. Precision and Bias10.1 PrecisionThe precision of the test method as deter-mined by statistical examination of interlaboratory results is asfollows:10.1.1 RepeatabilityThe difference between two testresults, obtained by the same operator with the same apparatusunder

27、 constant operating conditions on identical test material,would in the long run, in the normal and correct operation ofthe test method, exceed the following values only in one casein twenty:2 + 5 % penetration value10.1.2 ReproducibilityThe difference between two singleand independent results obtain

28、ed by different operators work-ing in different laboratories on identical test material would, inthe long run, in the normal and correct operation of the testmethod, exceed the following values only in one case intwenty:9 + 12 % penetration value10.2 BiasThe procedure in this test method has no bias

29、because the value of cone penetration can be defined only interms of a test method.11.
