ASTM D6809-02

Standard Guide for Quality Control and Quality Assurance Procedures for Aromatic Hydrocarbons and Related Materials

SCOPE
1.1 This guide contains non-mandatory Quality Assurance/Quality Control (QA/QC) activities that may be referenced in standards maintained by ASTM Committee D16 on Aromatic Hydrocarbons and Related Materials.
1.2 This guide does not purport to address all of the issues that may be pertinent to an active QA/QC process.
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 requirements prior to use.
