ASTM G72 Standard Test for Autoignition Temperature of Liquids and Solids in Oxygen-Enriched Environment

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ASTM G72 testing. This test method covers determining the temperature at which liquids and solids will spontaneously ignite. These materials must ignite without the application of sparks or flames in a high-pressure oxygen-enriched environment.

ASTM G72 Standard Test for Autoignition Temperature of Liquids and Solids in Oxygen-Enriched Environment

This test method is designed for use at pressures of 2,1 to 20,7 MPa (300 to 3000 psi). The pressure used in the description of the method is 10,3 MPa (1500 psi). The test method as described is for liquids or solids with an ignition temperature in the range of 60 to 425°C (140 to 800°F).

This test method is for high pressure pure oxygen. The test method can be used in atmospheres between 0,5% and 100% oxygen.

An apparatus conforming to these requirements is disclosed. This test method is applicable to materials with higher pressures and higher ignition temperatures. If more stringent requirements than those described or other oxidizers are required, care should be taken when selecting an alternative safe apparatus that can withstand the conditions.

Values ​​stated in SI units or inch-pound units will be considered standard separately. Values ​​specified in each system may not be exactly equivalent; therefore, each system will be used independently of each other. Combining values ​​from the two systems may result in non-compliance with the standard.

This standard does not purport to address all, if any, safety concerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions prior to use.
