ASTM D1122 Test Method for Density and Relative Density of Engine Coolant Concentrates and Engine Coolants by the Hydrometer

The ASTM D1122 test method is used to determine the relative density of fluids, engine coolant concentrates, and engine coolants. The relative density of an engine coolant may be used to determine the approximate percent freezing point, glycol, and boiling point, provided the glycol type is known. ASTM specifications contain temperature guidelines for the relative density of fluid measurements. Ranges of 25 °C, 20 °C, and 15.6 °C are commonly used.

    Introduction to ASTM D1122

    The ASTM D1122 Test Method determines the relative density of heat transfer fluids, glycerin, engine coolant concentrates, and aqueous engine coolants. The ASTM D1122 test method controls the relative density of an engine coolant concentrate. The precise requirement for the ASTM D1122 Test ensures that repeatability among different operators does not exceed 0.0012 from the average value for engine coolant concentrate samples with relative densities between 1.0000 and 1.1300. To read the hygrometer when the sample is transparent, observation is performed from below until a straight line occurs. MaTestLab is one of the best testing service providers, with the best network of testing laboratories in the USA to carry out ASTM D1122 tests for our clients.

    ASTM D1122 Test Method

    Exposure to temperature The upper layer is separated and cooled at 4 °C. The sample is placed in the water bath at 15.5 ± 0.3°C (60 ± 0.5°F).
    Observations Two methods are used to read and apply correction factors to the reference liquid. 

    ASTM D1122 Test Specimen

    Specimen DetailIn the ASTM D1122 test, the specimen is the specific type of fluid that is being subjected to the testing procedure.
    Specimen SizeThe liquid is considered the specimen, depending on the requirements of the test procedure. A sufficient volume of the liquid is needed, varying depending on factors such as precise measurement. 

    ASTM D1122 Test Result

    The ASTM D1122 test method estimates the percentage of glycol, freezing, and boiling points when the glycol type is known and is used as a production control test for engine coolant concentrate, ensuring quality control during manufacturing. 

    ASTM D1122 Related TestsASTM D1122 test method is related to ASTM D 1176, used for Sampling and Preparing Aqueous Solutions of engine coolants, and ASTM D 1193, which is used for specification for reagent water.
