3、 purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.

4、2. Summary of Test Method2.1 A known excess amount of copper nitrate solution isadded to the detergent sample under controlled pH conditions.The uncomplexed copper is back-titrated potentiometricallywith a standard NTA solution using a copper ion specificelectrode. The millimoles of NTA in the sampl

5、e are equivalentto the millimoles of copper added, less the millimoles of theNTA titrant.3. Significance and Use3.1 This test method is suitable in research, development,and manufacturing control to monitor the level of NTA, asequestering agent, in powder and liquid detergents.3.2 Accurate determina

6、tion of a sequestering agent is im-portant in evaluating cost and performance of detergent prod-ucts.4. Interferences4.1 The presence of substances that will make coppercomplex like citrate, formate, ethylenediaminetetraacetate, andphosphonate, will interfere positively in the determination ofNTA.5.

Duplicateruns that agree within 0.7 weight % are acceptable foraveraging (95 % confidence level).11.2 BiasNo statement of bias can be made for this testmethod, since no acce
