Standard Test Method for Softening Point of Pitches (Mettler Softening Point Method)

Importancia y uso:

5.1 Pitch does not go through a solid-liquid phase change when heated, and therefore does not have a true melting point. As the temperature is raised pitch gradually softens or becomes less viscous. For this reason, the determination of the softening point must be made by an arbitrary, but closely defined, method if the test values are to be reproducible.

5.2 This test method is useful in determining the consistency of pitches as one element in establishing the uniformity of shipments or sources of supply.
