Standard Specification for Vapor-Degreasing Grade Perchloroethylene

ABSTRACT
This specification covers the requirements and corresponding test methods for vapor-degreasing grade perchloroethylene. When tested, materials shall conform to the following physical properties: specific gravity; distillation range (initial boiling point and dry point); acidity as HCl; alkalinity as NaOH; water content; appearance; color in Pt-co units; halides content; nonvolatile residues content; acid acceptance; and copper corrosion behavior.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers vapor-degreasing grade perchloroethylene.
Note 1—Practices D 3844 and D 4276, and provide additional important information on solvent properties.
