DUS 1731:2024, Standard Test Method for Corrosiveness to Copper from Petroleum Products by Copper Strip Test, Second Edition; (19 page(s), in English)

This Draft Uganda Standard covers the determination of the corrosiveness to copper of aviation gasoline, aviation turbine fuel, automotive gasoline, cleaners (Stoddard) solvent, kerosine, diesel fuel, distillate fuel oil, lubricating oil, and natural gasoline or other hydrocarbons having a vapor pressure no greater than 124 kPa (18 psi) at 37.8 °C. (Warning—Some products, particularly natural gasoline, may have a much higher vapor pressure than would normally be characteristic of automotive or aviation gasolines. For this reason, exercise extreme caution to ensure that the pressure vessel used in this test method and containing natural gasoline or other products of high vapor pressure is not placed in the 100 °C (212 °F) bath. Samples having vapor pressures in excess of 124 kPa (18 psi) may develop sufficient pressures at 100 °C to rupture the pressure vessel.
