ASTM D7849-14
(Classification)Standard Classification for Nomenclature of Reference Materials of Committee D24
Standard Classification for Nomenclature of Reference Materials of Committee D24
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
3.1 Standard reference materials are used for calibration and verification of many carbon black tests under the jurisdiction of D24. This practice defines a systematic means of naming these reference materials and does so in a manner to clearly differentiate between the various reference materials as well as their version.
SCOPE
1.1 This classification covers instructions for naming the reference materials used by Committee D24.
1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Standard Classification for
Nomenclature of Reference Materials of Committee D24
This standard is issued under the fixed designation D7849; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of
original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A
superscript epsilon (´) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.
