1.1These test methods cover the determination of the saponification number of tall oil and products obtained by the fractionation of tall oil such as rosin, fatty acids and distilled tall oil as defined in Terminology D804. These test methods are also applicable to gum and wood rosin. Two test methods are covered as follows:
1.1.1Test method using a potentiometric method, and
1.1.2Test method using an internal indicator method.
1.2The potentiometric method is suitable for use with both light- and dark-colored test samples. It should be considered the referee method. The internal indicator method is suitable for use only with light- and medium-colored test samples. It should be considered the alternate method.
1.3The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
