Specifies an azeotropic method for the determination of the water content of pitch used in the production of aluminium.

This International Standard specifies an azeotropic distillation method for the determination of the water content of pitch used in the production of aluminium.

The method is applicable to pitches having water contents in the range 0,1 to 2 % (m/m).

NOTE Water contents in excess of 2 % (m/m) may be determined by means of this method by using a larger receiver.
