Standards
“Crackle Test” references for determining water in oil (all values nominal). The crackle test is a visu-
al test performed by placing a small drop of oil onto a hot plate (usually around 300º C). The
amount of water present in oil samples is estimated by comparison to these standards. All values
certified by gravimetric preparation.
Soot Content Standards
Reference standards for use in the determination of soot content in 15W40 diesel motor oil by
infrared spectroscopy or other technique. All values certifed by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA).
Karl Fischer Titration CertifiedReference Standards
Karl Fischer Titration certified reference standards for determining water in motor oil (all values certi-
fied by Karl Fischer Titration). This test determines the amount of water present in the oil and is the
most commonly-used test for this type of determination, with a high degree of accuracy. For use
with ASTM D6304.

Polysulfide Oil Standards
Sulfur QC Samples, Drift Monitors andCalibration Standards Made fromPolysulfide oil
VHG Labs' polysulfide oils have been formulated
for long shelf life and optimal stability even when
exposed to x-rays from modern high wattage
XRF spectrometers. In addition, our polysulfide
oil products offer high purity, low volatility, and
minimal diffusion through sample films.
These standards are well suited to ultra low
level sulfur analysis, quality control, drift correction, blank measurement and calibration standards
for XRF and other sulfur analysis techniques. Our polysulfide oil standards are intended for use in
accordance with the newly revised ASTM D2622, D4294, D5453, D7039, D7212, D7220 and
others.

reliance on electronic control requires an independent standard to verify that the apparatus is performing cor-

ASTM D86 distillation groups 1 and 2.
The Group 1 and 2 standard covers the boiling range 129º F to 368º F, (54º to 187º C) and was verified by
consensus analysis with twelve refinery laboratories.
