Upcoming Standards Volume Scheduled for Next Year
ASTM European Office has announced the schedule for the publication of Volume 15.01 - Refractories; Activated Carbon; Advanced Ceramics - which will be available from May 2001. The volume will cover 139 Standards in its 842 pages and is to be priced at 131 (104.80 to ASTM Members).
The majority of standards pertain to refractories. Some establish procedures for assessing the types of refractories, while others are more specific and aimed at the properties of basic refractories, carbon and carbon-ceramic brick, fireclay refractories, insulating firebrick, mortars, plastics and castables, and silicon refractories.
Also included are tests for evaluating the properties of activated carbon such as pH and ball-pan hardness. The volume will also contain several standards related to advanced ceramics testing.
