Historical Standard: ASTM E256-98(2003)e1 Standard Test Method for Chlorine in Organic Compounds by Sodium Peroxide Bomb Ignition
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM E256
1. Scope
1.1 This test method covers the determination of chlorine in organic compounds by sodium peroxide bomb ignition. It is intended for application to samples of organic materials containing more than 0.5 % chlorine. The procedure assumes that compounds containing halogens other than chlorine will not be present.
1.2 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. For specific safety precautions, see 6.5.2, Section 7, 8.3, and 8.9.
1.3 Review the current Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for detailed information concerning toxicity, first aid procedures, and safety precautions.
Note 1Other test methods based on oxygen bomb combustion for analysis for chlorine are described in Test Method D 808, Test Method D 2361, and Test Method D 4208.
