1、Designation:D448618Standard Test Method forKinematic Viscosity of Volatile and Reactive Liquids1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D4486;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A num
2、ber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers the measurement of kinematicviscosity of transparent,Newtonian liquids which because oftheir reactivity,instability,o
3、r volatility cannot be used inconventional capillary kinematic viscometers.This test methodis applicable up to 2 105N/m2(2 atm)pressure and tem-perature range from 53 C to+135 C(65 F to+275 F).1.1.1 For the measurement of the kinematic viscosity ofother liquids,see Test Method D445.The difference be
4、tweenthe two methods is in the viscometers.The viscometersspecified in used Specification D446 are open to theatmosphere,while the viscometers in this method are sealed.When volatile liquids are measured in sealed viscometers,thedensity of the vapor may not be negligible compared with thedensity of
