Book Description

Excerpt from The Laboratory Book of Mineral Oil Testing I have been requested to compile the following notes on the commercial examination of mineral oil-products as an outcome of a personal experience of some sixteen years' continual work on the subject. I have not endeavoured to write a text-book, but to give in a concise form such details for the working of apparatus special to the testing of petroleum and its derivatives as will enable the analyst who may have occasionally to examine such bodies, to proceed in a satisfactory manner. At the same time it has seemed well to included those ordinary physical tests which require special modifications of this work.
