1、Designation: D 5910 05Standard Test Method forDetermination of Free Formaldehyde in Emulsion Polymersby Liquid Chromatography1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 5910; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revisio

2、n, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method is used for the determination of freeformaldehyde (HCHO) in emulsion polymers without

3、 upset-ting existing formaldehyde equilibria. The procedure has beenevaluated using acrylic, acrylonitrile-butadiene, carboxylatedstyrene-butadiene and polyvinyl acetate emulsion polymers.This test method may also be applicable for emulsion polymersof other compositions. The established working rang

4、e of thistest method is from 0.05 to 15 ppm formaldehyde. Emulsionpolymers must be diluted to meet the working range.1.2 This test method minimizes changes in free formalde-hyde concentration that can result from changes in the physicalor chemical properties of an emulsion polymer.1.3 There are no k

5、nown limitations to this test method whenused in the manner described. The emulsion polymer testspecimen must be prepared with a diluent that has a pH similarto that of the emulsion. Use of an inappropriate pH may upsetformaldehyde equilibria and result in incorrect formaldehydelevels.1.4 The values

6、 stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.5 This standard does not 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 safet

7、y and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Test Method3.1 The aqueous phase of an emulsion polymer is dilutedand chromatographed on a reversed-phase octadecyl silane(ODS) column using an aqueous mobile ph

9、ase and a visible-light detector at 410 nm. Formaldehyde is separated from otherspecies in the matrix on a chromatographic column. Thedetection system includes a post-column reactor that producesa lutidine derivative when formaldehyde reacts with the2,4-pentanedione reagent (Nash Reagent). The conce

10、ntrationof free formaldehyde in emulsion polymers is determined usingpeak areas from the standard and sample chromatograms. Thistest method is specific for formaldehyde.4. Significance and Use4.1 With the need to calculate free formaldehyde levels inemulsion polymers, it is necessary to make the det

11、erminationwithout upsetting any equilibria that might generate or depleteformaldehyde. This test method provides a means for deter-mining ppm levels of free formaldehyde in emulsion polymerswithout upsetting existing equilibria.5. Interferences5.1 This test method is very selective for formaldehyde.

12、Potential interferants are either chromatographically separatedfrom formaldehyde or do not react with the post-columnreagent.NOTE 1The following species were identified as possible interfer-ences for the method: acetaldehyde, acetone, benzaldehyde, formamide,formic acid, glyoxylic acid and propional

13、dehyde. These species, whenchromatographed using this test method, did not interfere with theformaldehyde peak at the 1000 ppm level or lower.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D01 on Paintand Related Coatings, Materials, and Applications and is the direct responsibility o
