significance And Use:

scope:

1.1 This test method covers the quantitative determination of total monoglyceride, total diglyceride, total triglyceride, and free and total glycerin in B-100 methyl esters by gas chromatography. The range of quantitation for monoglyceride is 0.009 to 0.77860 mass %, for diglyceride is 0.092353 to 0.54475 mass %, and for triglyceride is 0.00092857 to 1.3881 mass %. The range of quantitation for free glycerin is 0.0005714 to 0.019533 mass % and for total glycerin from 0.0090714 to 0.42767 mass %. This procedure is not applicable to vegetable oil methyl esters obtained from lauric oils, such as coconut oil and palm kernel oil.

1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
