After the extensive Round Robin study in 2009, the “Mini” Cloud Point test method developed by Tanaka has been approved and published by ASTM International as D7683-11 Standard Test Method for Cloud Point of Petroleum Products (Small Test Jar Method).
With the previously published D6749 for the Pour Point method (Air Pressure method), the test results generated by Tanaka MPC series pour/cloud point testers are now fully compliant with ASTM test methods.
We thank those who supported this important standardization project.
