These test methods provide a means for determining low levels of 1,1,1-trichloroethane and methylene chloride in virgin or reclaimed trichloroethylene and tetrachloroethylene.

Two test methods are covered, as follows:

Test Method A - Capillary column gas chromato-graphic determination of 1,1,1-trichloroethane and methylene chloride in trichloroethylene and tetrachloroethylene.

Test Method B - Packed column gas chromatographic determination of 1,1,1-trichloroethane and methylene chloride in trichloroethylene and tetrachloroethylene.
