2、 last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 These test methods cover the determination of the totalvolatile organic chlorides in concentrations from 10 to100 ppm in b
3、utane-butene mixtures.The amperometric finishis not directly applicable in the presence of other substancesthat combine with silver ion or oxidize chloride ion in diluteacid solution.Bromides,sulfides,ammonia,tobacco smoke,and more than 25 g of hydrogen peroxide in the test solutioninterfere in the
4、spectrophotometric procedure.1.2 Dissolved sodium chloride is not quantitatively deter-mined using these test methods.1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesaf
5、ety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.Specific warningstatements are given in Sections 5,8,11,14,19,and AnnexA1.2.R
