The method is also suitable for preparing samples for measuring the content of elements whose determination is hindered by the presence of a lubricant, such as graphite and oxygen. A condition for applying the method is that a suitable solvent for the respective lubricant is known and available.

The lubricant is extracted from a weighed test portion using a suitable solvent. The test portion is reweighed after extraction and the percent mass loss representing the extracted lubricant is calculated. The removed test portion can then be used to determine the content of other components by normal methods without any interference from the lubricant.

The lubricant content in metal-powder mixtures is a critical factor in powder metallurgy processes. It can affect the fluidity, compaction and sintering properties of the mixture, which can affect the quality of the final product. ISO 13944 helps manufacturers and quality control professionals measure and control lubricant content, ensuring consistent and reliable production.
