Scope:

The Rapid Small Scale Oxidation Test is a new method to evaluate the storage stability of liquid fuels (gasoline, diesel, FAME), grease or oil. It offers the advantages of an automatic instrument:
Good repeatable results ... in a minum of time ... by best possible user safety!

ASTM D 7525 - the new "Rapid Small Scale Oxidation Test" Method
covers the quantitative determination of the stability of gasoline (spark ignition fuel), including those containing alcohols or other oxygenates, under accelerated oxidation conditions.
The measured induction period can be used as an indication of the oxidation and storage stability.
Compared to some other oxidation and storage stability test methods, this test method uses a small sample and gives a result in a short time period.

• microprocessor controlled
