Petroleum products. Determination of carbon residue. Ramsbottom method. ... This International Standard specifies a method for determining the amount of carbon residue left after evaporation and pyrolysis of an oil, and is intended to provide some indication of relative coke-forming tendency. ... If a product has a Ramsbottom carbon residue of less than 0,1%, the procedure is modified by carrying out the test on a 10% distillation residue. 1, record 1, English, - distillation%20residue
