1、Designation:D346521Standard Guide forPurity of Monomeric Plasticizers by Gas Chromatography1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3465;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number
2、in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This gas chromatographic guide covers a procedure forextending the range of purity determination of monomericplasticizers beyond that now determi
3、ned by other methods.Due to the need to volatilize the plasticizer,only monomericplasticizers having definitive boiling points and a molecularweight less than 1000 Daltons,such as dioctyl phthalate,areapplicable to this guide.1.2 The values in SI units are to be regarded as standard.1.3 The text of
4、this guide references notes and footnotes thatprovide explanatory material.These notes and footnotes(ex-cluding those in tables and figures)are not to be considered asrequirements of this guide.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It

11、are sensed by the detector and quantifiedby an electronic data acquisition system(computer).The purityis based on the percent total area response of the principalpeak(s).All other components are impurities.5.Significance and Use5.1 Infrared techniques frequently cannot detect low-levelmaterials.Gas
12、chromatographic methods possess higher sensi-tivity and are used to extend limits of detection.5.2 It is expected that this guide will be suitable forspecifications,manufacturing control,and research and devel-opment.An area percent method of determining concentrationof the components shall be used
