The lowest temperature at which equal volumes of freshly distilled aniline and a material being tested are completely miscible.
The aniline point of a petroleum product is the minimum equilibrium solution temperature with an equal volume of freshly distilled aniline.
The lowest temperature at which equal volumes of aniline and hydrocarbon fuel or lubricant base stock are completely miscible. A measure of the aromatic content of a hydrocarbon blend, used to predict the solvency of a base stock or the cetane number of a distillate fuel.
a method of evaluating the aggressiveness of petroleum oils, with lower aniline point indicating a more aromatic nature of the oil, which is associated with greater effects on general purpose elastomers
The minimum temperature for complete miscibility of equal volumes of aniline and the sample under test ASTM Method D 611. A product of high aniline point will be low in aromatics and naphthenes and, therefore, high in paraffins. Aniline point is often specified for spray oils, cleaning solvents, and thinners, where effectiveness depends upon aromatic content. In conjunction with API gravity, the aniline point may be used calculate the net heat of combustion for aviation fuels.
The lowest temperature at which equal parts of aniline and a test liquid (such as oil) will uniformly mix or blend. The aniline point of oil is a measure of aromaticity (the amount of unsaturated hydrocarbons present). The lower the aniline point, the more unsaturants are present and the higher the potential for swelling certain rubber compounds.
The lowest temperature at which dissolution occurs between an equal part of aniline and an oil.
