Flash point of atmospheric distillation residue is determined by ______________ apparatus?

Correct answer: C. Cleveland (open cup type)

  • A. Pensky-Martens (closed cup type)
  • B. Abel
  • C. Cleveland (open cup type)
  • D. None of these

Explanation

Atmospheric distillation residue is a relatively heavy product with a high flash point, so it is tested in the Cleveland open-cup apparatus. The Pensky-Martens and Abel methods are generally used for lower-flash-point products.
