1、Designation:D172209(Reapproved 2017)Standard Test Method forWater Miscibility of Water-Soluble Solvents1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D1722;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revisi
2、on.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S.Department of Defense.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the
3、misci-bility of water-soluble solvents with water.While writtenspecificallyfortestingacetone,isopropylalcohol(isopropanol),and methyl alcohol(methanol),the method issuitable for testing most water-soluble solvents.1.2 This test method serves to detect water-immisciblecontaminants qualitatively;the l
4、evel of detection of theseimpurities varies widely with both the type of solvent and thetype of impurity.1.3 The level of detection of water-insoluble materialsdepends upon the solvent tested and the type of impurity orimpurities present,that is paraffin,olefin,aromatic,highmolecular weight alcohol,
5、or ketone,etc.There is,therefore,nospecific level of impurity detected by this procedure.NOTE1This test method is normally performed at ambient,but othertemperatures may be used as specified by the consumer and supplier.1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units o
