10、ce and Use3.1 Either test method may be used to determine theconcentrations of diethylene glycol in ethylene glycol. Theconcentrations of the components are obtained by a normal-ization technique, based on the assumption that all componentsare eluted under the conditions used. If all components shou

11、ldnot be eluted, the calculated concentrations will be erroneouslyhigh, with the major component showing the most significantabsolute error. Since water is not detected by these procedures,the results are on a water-free basis. Water may be determinedin accordance with the applicable sections of Tes

TestMethodAis the simpler of the two test methods because it doesnot require the preparation of derivatives prior to gas chro-matographic analysis. The resul

Determine the water content asdescribed in the applicable section of Test Methods E 202.9.2.3 Obtain at least two chromatograms of the standardmixture as described in Section 10 and calculate the averagearea percent for each of the glycols present in accordance with11.2.1.

41、Do not include any areas associated with the pressurepeak in calculating the area percentages. Using the weightpercentages in the standard mixture and the average areapercentages, calculate the factor for diethylene glycol asdescribed in 11.1.1.Assume a calibration factor of unity for theethylene gl

The base ethylene glycol should contain lessthan 0.05 area % diethylene glycol.9.3.2

44、Prepare a standard mixture of the glycols whosecomposition approximates that of the glycol to be analyzed.The composition of the standard mixture should be known tothe nearest 0.001 %. Correct the composition for any waterpresent using the equation in 11.2.4. Determine the watercontent as described

45、in the applicable section of Test MethodsE 202. If the concentrations of the ethylene glycol in thediethylene glycol added to the base ethylene glycol in thestandard mixture does not exceed 0.2 area %, the concentrationof the impurity is insignificant at the concentration levelsincluded in the scope

46、 of this method. The base ethylene glycolshould contain less than 0.1 area % diethylene glycol.9.3.3 Obtain at least two chromatograms of the standardmixture and of the base ethylene glycol in accordance with10.2 and calculate the average area percent for each of theglycols present in accordance wit

47、h 11.2.1. Do not include anyareas associated with the pressure peak in calculating the areapercentages.
