ASTM D3401-97(2022)(Test Method)
Standard Test Methods for Water in Halogenated Organic Solvents and Their Admixtures

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
4.1 High water concentrations can have a detrimental effect on many uses of halogenated solvents.  
4.1.1 Water can cause corrosion and spotting when solvents are used for metal cleaning.  
4.1.2 Water can reduce the shelf life of aerosol formulations.  
4.1.3 Water can inhibit desired reactions when solvents are used in formulations.
SCOPE
1.1 These test methods describe the use of the Karl Fischer (KF) titration for determination of water in halogenated organic solvents and mixtures thereof. Water concentrations from 2 ppm to 1000 ppm can be determined in these solvents. Two test methods are covered as follows:  
1.1.1 Test Method A, Water Determination Using a Coulometric KF Titrator—The coulometric test method is known for its high degree of sensitivity (typically 2O) and should be the test method of choice if water concentrations are typically below 50 ppm or if only small amounts of sample are available for water determinations. This test method requires the use of equipment specifically designed for coulometric titrations.  
1.1.2 Test Method B, Water Determination Using a Volumetric KF Titrator—The volumetric test method is a more traditional approach to KF water determinations. Although titrators are specifically designed for KF volumetric determinations, many automatic titrators on the market can be adapted to perform KF titrations.  
1.2 Either of these test methods can be used to determine typical water concentrations (15 ppm to 500 ppm) found in halogenated solvents.  
1.3 These test methods recommend the use of commercially available Karl Fischer titrators and reagents.  
1.4 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. For specific precautionary statements, see Sections 11 and 15.  
1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

Standard Test Method for Assay of normal-Propyl Bromide Content

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
3.1 This test method provides an analysis in weight percent of the normal-propyl bromide concentration of virgin, formulated, or reclaimed normal-propyl bromide: compounds that co-elute with normal-propyl bromide or normal-heptane (internal standard) may interfere with this test method.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method provides a basis for the determination of the normal-propyl bromide (weight %) in the presence of stabilizers and impurities, in virgin or reclaimed normal-propyl bromide (nPB). The application range is from 50 wt % to 100 wt %.  
1.2 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

ASTM
ASTM D2110-00(2022)(Test Method)
Standard Test Method for pH of Water Extractions of Halogenated Organic Solvents and Their Admixtures

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
3.1 The pH of halogenated solvents varies according to the nature of stabilizers in the particular solvent. Solvents with alkaline stabilizers (amine-types) generally have pHs in the 7 to 11 range, whereas solvents containing neutral stabilizers (epoxide-types) generally have pHs in the 5 to 7 range.  
3.2 Virgin and reclaimed solvents should have pHs within these ranges, dependent upon the claimed method of stabilization. These values should be within the accepted limits as proposed by the producers of the original virgin solvent.  
3.3 A lowering of pH from the above values, on receipt or use, is cause for concern. In this event, solvents having epoxide stabilizers should be tested for acid acceptance; solvent having alkaline stabilizers should be tested for alkalinity.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method covers the measurement of the pH of water extractions of halogenated organic solvents and admixtures thereof. This test method is applicable for the determination of the pH of water extractions of virgin, reclaimed, or used solvents.  
1.2 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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.  
1.3 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

Standard Test Method for Acidity-Alkalinity of Halogenated Organic Solvents and Their Admixtures

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
4.1 This test method can be used to establish manufacturing and purchasing specifications. It can also be used to determine the condition of solvents in use.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method covers the determination of acidity in halogenated organic solvents and admixtures thereof. The alkalinity may be determined utilizing Test Methods D2106, by substituting the end point measured at pH 7 by bromothymol blue or pH meter.  
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.  
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, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Specific precautionary statements are given in Section 7.  
1.4 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
