Section 165:16-5-3 - Testing of prediluted aqueous ethylene glycol antifreeze The American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standards shall be used to make the following tests of antifreeze.
(1)Boiling point test. The boiling point of an antifreeze shall be determined by the ASTM standard test method D1120-17 (2017). The boiling point of the prediluted coolant as packaged shall be at least 226°F or 108°C.(2)pH test. The pH of an antifreeze shall be determined by the ASTM standard test method D1287-11 (2020). The pH of an antifreeze shall be run by using a sample of the prediluted coolant as packaged. The pH of this antifreeze solution shall not be below 7.5.(3)Corrosion inhibition test. The reserve alkalinity of antifreeze as determined by the ASTM standard test method D1121-11 (2020) shall be reported. The corrosion inhibitive properties of antifreeze shall be determined by the ASTM standard test method D1384-05 (2019). The average weight loss of each metal coupon shall not exceed the maximums stated as follows: copper 10 mg, solder 30 mg, brass 10 mg, steel 10 mg, cast iron 10 mg, and aluminum 30 mg.(4)Freezing point test. The freezing point of antifreeze shall be determined by the ASTM standard test method D1177-17 (2017). The freezing point of the concentrated antifreeze solution shall be at least to -34°F or -37°C.Okla. Admin. Code § 165:16-5-3
