1、Designation:D645016a(Reapproved 2021)Standard Test Method forFlash Point by Continuously Closed Cup(CCCFP)Tester1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6450;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of la
2、st revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This flash point test method is a dynamic method anddepends on definite rates of temperature increase.It is one ofthe many fl
3、ash point test methods available,and every flashpoint test method,including this one,is an empirical method.NOTE1Flash point values are not a constant physical-chemicalproperty of materials tested.They are a function of the apparatus design,the condition of the apparatus used,and the operational pro
4、cedure carriedout.Flash point can therefore only be defined in terms of a standard testmethod,and no general valid correlation can be guaranteed betweenresults obtained by different test methods or with test apparatus differentfrom that specified.1.2 This test method covers the determination of the
5、flashpoint of fuel oils,lube oils,solvents,and other liquids by acontinuously closed cup tester.The measurement is made on atest specimen of 1 mL.1.3 This test method utilizes a closed but unsealed cup withair injected into the test chamber.1.4 This test method is suitable for testing samples with a
6、flash point from 10 C to 250 C.NOTE2Flash point determinations below 10 C and above 250 C canbe performed;however,the precision has not been determined below andabove these temperatures.1.5 If the users specification requires a defined flash pointmethod other than this test method,neither this test
7、method norany other method should be substituted for the prescribedmethod without obtaining comparative data and an agreementfrom the specifier.1.6 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.Temperatures are in degrees Celsi
8、us,and pressure isin kilo-pascals.1.7 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 regula
9、tory limitations prior to use.Specific warning statements appear throughout the standard.1.8 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards
