ASTM International’s wear and erosion committee ( G02 ) has released a new standard that provides a test method for measuring friction and adhesive wear properties of lubricated and nonlubricated materials using the twist compression test (TCT). The new standard (soon to be published as G223) can be used to “rank combinations of surfaces in their resistance to adhesive wear. This can be useful…, Media Inquiries:, Gavin O’Reilly, tel +1.610.832.9618; goreilly@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Jennifer Tursi HER , tel +1.610.832.9653; jtursi@astm.org Release #11697 ###

Two proposed standards from ASTM International’s water committee ( D19 ) are devoted to different aspects of water quality. The first proposed standard ( WK68866 ) will provide a screening method to assess contaminants in water samples prior to a more detailed analysis. If approved, this standard will cover the determination of adsorbable organic fluorine (AOF) in waters and waste waters that can…, Media Inquiries:, Dan Bergels, tel +1.610.832.9602; dbergels@astm.org, Committee Contact:, Brian Milewski, tel +1.610.832.9619; bmilewski@astm.org Release #11643 ###
