The carbon residue value of the various petroleum materials serves as an approximation of the tendency of the material to form carbonaceous type deposits under degradation conditions similar to those used in the test method, and can be useful as a guide in manufacture of certain stocks.

Test Method

Determines the ‘Carbon Residue’ left after evaporation and Pyrolysis of a sample oil in the Ramsbottom Furnace, providing an indication of the deposit forming tendencies of Fuels and Guidelines for the Processing of Refinery Products.
