Standard Guide for the Comparison, Detection, and Identification of the Odors of Paints, Inks, and Related Materials (Withdrawn 2016)
SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
4.1 This guide is intended to direct the user to the appropriate existing standards and literature in order for the user to become knowledgeable of the operations that need to be done to effectively compare, detect and identify the odors of paints, inks, and related materials.
4.2 This guide directs the user to specific standards and literature sources that allow the user to accomplish the primary steps to complete the following task:(1) Comparing products for their odor characteristics,(2) Determining the perception threshold of odors,(3) Isolating and identifying the chemical nature of the odor, and(4) Confirming the results.
SCOPE
1.1 This guide is intended to provide direction in order to assist the producers and users of paints, inks, and related coatings, and others who may also be exposed, to detect, compare and identify the odors that may originate from these materials.
1.2 This guide is intended to provide references for establishing guidelines to assist in identifying and verifying the sources of odors and other related issues. Further information may be found in DS-48A (1).2
1.3 This guide is intended to assist in establishing guidelines as follows:(1) Comparing products for their odor characteristics,(2) Determining the perception threshold of odors,(3) Isolating and identifying the chemical nature of the odor, and(4) Confirming the results.
1.4 For hazard information and guidance, see the supplier's Material Safety Data Sheet.
1.5 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.
WITHDRAWN RATIONALE
This guide is intended to provide direction in order to assist the producers and users of paints, inks, and related coatings, and others who may also be exposed, to detect, compare and identify the odors that may originate from these materials.
Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee D01 on Paints and Related Coatings, Materials, and Applications, this guide was withdrawn in June 2016. This standard is being withdrawn without replacement due to its limited use by industry.
