1.1This test method covers the determination of the density of as-manufactured carbon and graphite from measurements of mass and dimensions at room temperature.

1.2This test method is applicable to boronated carbon and graphite.

1.3This test method is not applicable to carbon- and graphite-containing materials that are thermally unstable at or below temperatures of 200 °C.

1.4The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.5This 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

1.6This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
