Standard Test Method for Color of Liquids Using Tristimulus Colorimetry
 N D5386

Annotation

This test method covers an instrumental method for the CIE (Commission International de l'Eclairage) tristimulus measurement of the color of near-clear liquid samples. The measurement is converted to color ratings in the platinumcobalt system.

This test method has been found applicable to the color measurement of clear, liquid samples, free of haze, with nominal platinum cobalt color values in the 0 to 100 range. It is applicable to nonfluorescent liquids with light absorption characteristics similar to those of the platinum cobalt color standard solutions. Test Methods D1686, D2108, and E450 deal with the visual and instrumental measurement of nearclear liquids.

In determining the conformance of the test results using this method to applicable specifications, results shall be rounded in accordance with the rounding off methods of Practice E29.

The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. For specific hazard statements, see Section 8.

*A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this standard.
