Standard Test Methods for Sampling and Chemical Analysis of Alkylbenzene Sulfonates (Withdrawn 2023)

Summary

1.1 These test methods cover the sampling and chemical analysis of paste, powder, or liquid detergent alkylbenzene sulfonates.

1.2 The procedures for sampling and analysis appear in the following order:

 

Sections

 

 

Sampling:

 

 Powders and Flakes Packed in Cans or Cartons

3

 Powders and Flakes in Bulk

4

 Liquids

6

 Pastes

7

Hazards

8

Preparation of Sample

9

Moisture:

 

 Distillation Method

11 – 14

 Karl Fischer Method

15 – 20

Total Matter Insoluble in Alcohol

21 – 23

Neutral Oil

24 – 27

Chlorides Calculated as Sodium Chloride (NaCl)

28 – 31

pH

32


1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. For a specific hazards statement, see Section 8.


Rationale:

These test methods cover the sampling and chemical analysis of paste, powder, or liquid detergent alkylbenzene sulfonates. Reagent grade chemicals shall be used in all tests. The distillation method shall be preferred for moisture testing. Water by the Karl Fischer titration method shall be used when the amount of moisture is low. Total matter insoluble in alcohol, neutral oil content, chlorides calculated as sodium chloride, and pH shall also be tested.
