BS ISO 5940-2:2007

Carbonaceous materials used in the production of aluminium. Pitch for electrodes. Determination of the softening point (Mettler softening point method) | Status: Under review, Current

1 Scope This part of ISO 5940 specifies a method to determine the softening point of pitches by the Mettler method, within the range of 50 °C to 180 °C. It can be used for other organic materials that are used as binder and impregnating agents, where they have a Mettler softening point within the range of 50 °C to 150 °C.
