We perform oil quality testing by ASTM D473 to measure the sediment in crude oils and fuel oils by extraction with toluene. Knowing the sediment content of crude oils and fuel oils is important to refiners and purchasers.
ASTM D473 corresponds to ISO 3735 and IP 53.
SPL also performs sediment testing by ASTM D2273, ASTM D2709, ASTM D4176, and ASTM D1796. These different test methods use different instruments or procedures or are used for certain sample types. Click on the test method number to learn more about each test.
