Title
Standard Test Method for Analysis of Components in Poly(Vinyl Chloride) Compounds Using an Infrared Spectrophotometric Technique
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Jul 10, 1999
Scope:
(Footnote *)
This test method provides for the identification of certain resins,
plasticizers, stabilizers, and
fillers in poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) compounds by an infrared
spectrophotometric technique. In
many cases, individual components may be measured quantitatively.
Complementary procedures, such as
chromatographic and other separations, will be necessary to separate
specific components and extend
the applications of this test method. Other instrumental test methods,
such as optical emission or
X-ray spectroscopic methods, may yield complementary information which
may allow more complete or,
in some cases, easier measurement of the components. The resin
components covered in this test
method are listed in the appendix.
PVC formulations are too varied to be covered adequately by a single
test method. Using the
following test method, many compounds may be separated into resins,
plasticizers, stabilizers, and
fillers. A number of components can be quantitatively measured. Many
more can be identified and
their concentrations estimated. By the use of prepared standards, one
may determine the usefulness
and accuracy of the test method for specific PVC formulations. This
test method is applicable for
the resin components listed in the appendix and for other components
having similar chemical
compositions and solubility characteristics. This test method can lead
to error in cases where the
nature of the components is not known.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The
values in brackets are given
for information only.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
NOTE 1 - There is no similar or equivalent ISO standard.

standard.
