Summary of this proficiency test: On 27 April 2016 the proficiency test on

to the laboratories. Enclosed to the samples were the instructions to the participants for this
proficiency test and the
material safety data sheet (MSDS).
The samples can be analyzed on: Total Acid Number, Base Number , Color ASTM, Density @ 15°C, Flash Point PMcc, Flash Point C.O.C., ICB membrane patch colorimetry,
Kinematic viscosity @ 40°C, Kinematic viscosity @ 100°C, Viscosity Index, Oxidation Stability RPVOT, Water content by KF, Water Separability and Level of contamination.
The deadline for reporting results is set on
