ASTM International’s petroleum products, liquid fuels, and lubricants committee ( D02 ) has revised its specification for automotive spark-ignition engine fuel (gasoline). The revision was driven by a review of multi-decade average seasonal temperatures used to develop the volatility classes for gasoline. The revision also revises wintertime 50% distillation limits based on vehicle testing.…, Media Inquiries:, Gavin O’Reilly, tel +1.610.832.9618; goreilly@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Alyson Fick, tel +1.610.832.9710; afick@astm.org Release #11812 ###

A new ASTM International standard will help to control microbial contamination that can degrade turbine oils and turbine oil systems. ASTM’s committee on petroleum products, liquid fuels and lubricants ( D02 ) developed the standard, which will soon be published as D8506. ASTM member Fred Passman notes turbine oils are nominally water-free, and microbes are only metabolically active where traces…, Media Inquiries:, Gavin O’Reilly, tel +1.610.832.9618; goreilly@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Alyson Fick, tel +1.610.832.9710; afick@astm.org Release #11686 ###
