Drop melting point of petroleum wax ASTM D127

Drop Melting Point Apparatus for petroleum wax as per ASTM D127. Used to determine the melting point of wax samples with accurate temperature control in laboratory testing.

Drop melting point of petroleum wax ASTM D127

Compliance Standard : ASTM D127 – Standard Test Method for Drop Melting Point of Petroleum Wax, Equivalent procedures as referenced in international petroleum testing practices
Application : Petroleum refineries and wax processing plants, Lubricant and specialty wax manufacturing units, Quality control and R&D laboratories, Chemical and petrochemical industries, Research and academic institutions.
Typical materials tested include : Petroleum waxes, Paraffin wax, Microcrystalline wax, Related wax products.

Product Description :  The apparatus consists of a transparent glass heating bath mounted on a temperature-controlled electric hot plate. The bath is fitted with a wax sample holder assembly, thermometer / temperature sensor, and observation window for clear visibility of the wax drop. Heating is regulated through a manual energy regulator / digital temperature controller, allowing the operator to achieve the specified heating rate as per ASTM D127. The compact bench-top design ensures ease of operation, safety, and repeatable results.
