This test method covers the determination of the methanol extract, or nonvolatile methanol-soluble portion, of vinyl chloride resins.

1.1This test method covers the determination of the methanol extract, or nonvolatile methanol-soluble portion, of vinyl chloride resins.

1.2The methanol extract test is most commonly employed with paste- or dispersion-type vinyl resins intended for organosol or plastisol applications. The major ingredient removed is the soap system employed in the polymerization reaction.

1.3The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.4This 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Note 1:There is no known ISO equivalent to this standard.

1.5This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
