About Copper Strip Corrosion Test Apparatus
The Copper Strip Corrosion Test Apparatus is a precision laboratory instrument used to determine the corrosiveness of petroleum products, lubricants, and other hydrocarbon solvents on copper. It is designed in compliance with international testing standards such as ASTM D130 and IP 154, ensuring accurate and reliable evaluation of corrosive properties.
This apparatus facilitates controlled heating of the test sample along with a polished copper strip, allowing observation of discoloration or corrosion effects after a specified test period. It is widely used in petroleum refineries, chemical industries, research laboratories, and quality control departments.
