ASTM D3680-89(1996)e1

Standard Test Method for Residual Vinyl Chloride Monomer Content of Poly(Vinyl Chloride) Resins, Compounds, and Copolymers by Solution Injection Technique (Withdrawn 2005)
standard by ASTM International, 01/01/1996

Category: ASTM

Description

1.1 This test method can be used to determine small amounts of residual vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) in poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) resins. It may be possible to use it for other resins or compounds containing vinyl chloride provided there are no other volatile components present with the same retention time as vinyl chloride monomer.

1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.

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 hazard statement, see Section 9.
