(Test Method)Standard Test Method for Heptane Miscibility of Lacquer Solvents
Standard Test Method for Heptane Miscibility of Lacquer Solvents
SCOPE
1.1 This test method covers determination of the miscibility of lacquer solvents with heptane. It may also be used to detect qualitatively the presence of moisture in esters and ketones.
Note 1--For the quantitative determination of water content, see Test Method D1364.
1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, 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.
1.3 For hazard information and guidance, see the supplier's Material Safety Data Sheet.
