significance And Use:
Either test method may be used to determine the concentrations of diethylene glycol in ethylene glycol. The concentrations of the components are obtained by a normalization technique, based on the... View More
scope:
1.1 These test methods are intended primarily for the analysis of mixtures of ethylene and diethylene glycols in which the diethylene glycol concentration is 0.1 % or less. Both test methods should be applicable to higher concentrations of diethylene glycol, but precision and bias estimates have been obtained only for 0.05 to 0.1 % diethylene glycol.
Note 1
Test Methods E 202 describe another gas chromatographic test method applicable to mixtures of ethylene, diethylene, and triethylene glycols and mixtures of propylene, dipropylene, and tripropylene glycols in which one of the glycols is the principal component and the other two are present in concentrations of 0.1 to 1 % each.
1.2 The two test methods are given as follows:
| Sections | |
| Test Method A-Nonderivative Method | 5 to 13 |
| Test Method B-Derivative Method | 14 to 22 |
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. For a specific warning statement, see 15.1.5.
