, A new ASTM International standard developed by the gaseous fuels committee ( D03 ) provides a test method for the measurement of siloxanes and trimethylsilanol (TMSOL) in gaseous fuels. The standard ( D8455 ) addresses siloxanes and TMSOL as they are known to build up and cause various issues with fuels and gas-powered systems. This includes gas grids and elements of generating electricity such…, 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 #11536 ###, ,
