(What is a Work Item? / How to Input to a Work Item)

Work Item: ASTM WK36565 - Revision of E662 - 09 Standard Test Method for Specific Optical Density of Smoke Generated by Solid Materials


Active Standard: E662 - 13

Developed by Subcommittee: E05.21 | Committee E05 Home | Contact Staff Manager



1. Rationale

Section X5 discusses standard reference materials. Several laboratories have requested that the standard reference some type of SRM. The non-flaming SRM discussed in this section has been discontinued by NIST, but a similar material is now available from another source. This ballot is to update X5 with this information.
