7、estersfollowed by titration of the unreacted rosin acids.4.Significance and Use4.1 This is a revision of the method for measuring rosinacids content combines the three major ways of determiningthe rosin acids content of pine chemicals products into a singlemethod.4.1.1 For materials containing less
8、than 15%rosin,themodified Glidden procedure has gained acceptance.For mate-rials containing more than 15%rosin the modified WolfeMethod is preferred.The modified Wolfe and modified Gliddenprocedures differ only in their details.They have been com-bined here into a single procedure.This procedure can
