Application Notes:
 

carbon residue


is the percent of coked material remaining after a sample of oil has been exposed to high temperatures under test method ASTM-D-189 (Conradson), D-524 (Ramsbottom), or D-4530 (Micro Carbon); hence, a measure of coke-forming tendencies. Results should be interpreted cautiously, as there may be little similarity between test conditions and actual service conditions.
