3、TESeveral sections have been changed editorially in March 2001.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determination of the re-sidual acrylonitrile (RAN) content in nitrile-butadiene rubbers(NBR), styrene-acrylonitrile (SAN) copolymers, and rubber-modified acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) resin

4、s.1.2 Any components that can generate acrylonitrile in theheadspace procedure will constitute an interference. The pres-ence of 3-hydroxypropionitrile in latices limits this procedureto dry rubbers and resins.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associate

5、d 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.

Both vials are agitated for a specified timeunder ambient conditions. After agitation, the vials are ther-mally equilibrated in

An automated injectionsystem is used to effect the transfer. The capillary column willprovide the chromatographic
