We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "ASTM standards",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Laboratorytalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Simultaneous thermal diffusivity and specific heat from
Labcell, which we summarised at the time by saying "Typical users of the new KD2Pro will be food scientists and developers of new food products who need to determine cooking times, as well as researchers in universities and commercial R+D
environments".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Turnkey analysis for quality of biodiesel content from
Perkin Elmer LAS (UK): "PerkinElmer announces four biodiesel gas chromatography (GC) turnkey systems for the verification of pure biodiesel (B100) to meet ASTM and European CEN Method EN14105 standard".
In July 2006, we covered the news from Zwick Roell
concerning its Instrumented impact testers
- take a look at Pendulum impact tests
which says: "Pendulum impact testers determine the energy required to break a standardized specimen by measuring the height to which the pendulum hammer rises after impacting the test piece".
Take a look also at the news release from Sartec, Standalone calorimeter is low cost,
as well as Professorship for applications specialist in China from Malvern Instruments,
and Simple test for latex rubber stability from Secomak.
