SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM E202
1. Scope
1.1 These test methods cover the chemical and physical analysis of the commonly available grades of ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, triethylene glycol, propylene glycol, and dipropylene glycol. The key sections appear in the following order:
| Sections | |
| Purity of Reagents | 4 |
| Specific Gravity | 5-7 |
| Distillation Range | 8-10 |
| Acidity | 11-13 |
| Water | 14-16 |
| Iron | 17-25 |
| Color | 26-28 |
| Gas Chromatographic Analysis | 29-39 |
1.2 Review the current appropriate Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for detailed information concerning toxicity, first aid procedures, and safety precautions.
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.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
