About This Item
ASTM D167/D167M is the standard test method for determining the apparent and true specific gravity and porosity of lump coke. It provides a technical basis for evaluating key physical properties that can affect handling, performance, and product comparison. By using a recognized ASTM standard, laboratories and buyers can support more consistent testing, clearer quality checks, and more reliable evaluation of lump coke materials in industrial and procurement settings.
Overview of ASTM D167/D167M
This ASTM standard focuses on measuring specific gravity and porosity in lump coke, two properties that help characterize the material’s structure and density-related behavior. The method is intended for technical use where a defined test procedure is needed to support repeatable results and meaningful comparison between samples. ASTM D167/D167M is commonly referenced when stakeholders need a shared basis for assessing lump coke quality, verification, or acceptance against internal requirements.
Common use cases of ASTM D167/D167M
ASTM D167/D167M is typically used in testing workflows involving lump coke evaluation, where apparent and true specific gravity and porosity are important indicators. It may be applied in laboratory quality control, incoming material inspection, specification review, and product comparison. The standard is especially useful when reporting results that need to be understood consistently across suppliers, buyers, and technical teams working with coke-related materials and process requirements.
Benefits of using ASTM D167/D167M
Using ASTM D167/D167M helps support consistent measurement of important physical properties for lump coke. That consistency can improve product evaluation, reduce ambiguity in purchasing or compliance discussions, and strengthen quality control programs. A recognized ASTM method also makes it easier to compare results over time or between laboratories, which can lower risk in technical decision-making and help maintain clear documentation for standards-based testing.
