The higher the viscosity index, the lower the change in viscosity. 1.2 This practice does not apply to petroleum products with kinematic viscosities less than 2.0 mm 2 /s at 100 ☌. We also perform viscosity testing by ASTM D1092, ASTM D2161, ASTM D2422, ASTM D2532, ASTM D2983, ASTM D341, ASTM D445, IP 226, IP 71, ISO 2909, and ISO 3104. These different test methods use different instruments or procedures or are used for certain sample types. D2270 - 10 (2016) Note 1: VI from kinematic viscosities determined at 40 ☌ and 100 ☌ are virtually the same as those obtained from the former VI system using kinematic viscosities determined at 37.78 ☌ and 98.89 ☌. This calculation requires ASTM D445 - Kinematic Viscosity.
ASTM D2270 covers the procedures for calculating the viscosity index of petroleum products, such as lubricating oils, and related materials from their kinematic viscosities at 40 and 100☌. Viscosity Index is sometimes used to characterize base oils for purposes of establishing engine testing requirements for engine oil performance categories. The viscosity index is used in practice as a single number indicating temperature dependence of kinematic viscosity. A higher viscosity index indicates a smaller decrease in kinematic viscosity with increasing temperature of the lubricant. 3 For referenced ASTM standards, visit the ASTM website, or contact ASTM Customer Service at. We perform fuel and lubricants quality testing by ASTM D2270 to calculate a petroleum product’s viscosity index from the product’s kinematic viscosity. The viscosity index is a widely used and accepted measure of the variation in kinematic viscosity due to changes in the temperature of a petroleum product between 40 and 100☌. 2 Supporting data (Metrication of Viscosity Index System Method D 2270) have been led at ASTM International Headquarters and may be obtained by requesting Research Report RR: D02-1009.
