1、Designation:G12015Standard Practice forDetermination of Soluble Residual Contamination bySoxhlet Extraction1This standard is issued under the fixed designation G120;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last rev
2、ision.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 This practice describes a procedure for the determina-tion of residual contamination in materials to be used within orin contact wi
3、th hardware requiring a high level of cleanliness,such as components for oxygen service,by Soxhlet extraction.1.2 This practice may be used for extracting nonvolatile andsemivolatile residues from solids such as new and used gloves,new and used wipers,contaminated test specimens or controlcoupons,sm
4、all piece parts(metallic or nonmetallic),etc.Whenused with proposed consumable cleaning materials(wipers,gloves,etc.),this practice may be used to determine thepotential of the proposed solvent to extract contaminants(plasticizers,residual detergents,brighteners,etc.)from thecleaning material and de
5、posit them on the surface beingcleaned.1.3 This practice is not suitable for the evaluation ofparticulate contamination.1.4 The values stated in SI units are standard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the
6、 user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2D1193 Specification for Reagent WaterE1235 Test Method for Gravimetric Determination of Non-volatile Residue(
