A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Color testing of petroleum products

Color testing of petroleum products measures the amount of light absorbed by a sample, expressed as a color index (CU). Mastering the ASTM D2878 procedure, the calculation of the color index, and interpreting typical ranges for different petroleum fractions is essential for quality control and product specification in the Nigerian tertiary exam.
