Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee D02 on Petroleum Products, Liquid Fuels, and Lubricants, this test method was withdrawn in November 2022 without replacement. To keep the method current, an ILS must be conducted to generate a research report and new precision statement. A communication was sent to the global ASTM community to communicate the plan to allow these methods to eventually be withdrawn. There were no responses to this communication and no volunteers to lead an ILS. Thus, the method is withdrawn with no replacement.
