NOACK S2® Volatility Test

Evaporation Loss  |  Phosphorous Volatility


Test Method

ASTM D5800


About

The evaporation loss/volatility of engine oils is of particular importance to the automotive industry as it closely relates to oil consumption in an engine and can lead to a change in the properties of the engine lubricant.

A measured quantity of sample is placed in an evaporation crucible and heated to 250°C for 1-hour while a constant flow of air, controlled at 20 mm H2O vacuum, is drawn over its surface to remove the resultant vapors.  The loss in mass of the oil is determined by weighing before and after the test and calculating the percent loss.
