1、Designation: E 1945 02 (Reapproved 2008)Standard Test Method forPercent Dispersibility1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E 1945; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number

2、in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method is used to determine the percentdispersibility of dry pesticide formulations.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be rega

3、rded asstandard. No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use.
