Paints and varnishes — Determination of monomeric diisocyanate content in coating materials and similar products using high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV)

This document specifies a method for the quantitative determination of monomeric diisocyanate content in coating materials, adhesives and other liquid or pasty materials. This method is suitable for the quantification of the following monomeric diisocyanates: methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI, 2,4’-MDI and 4,4’-MDI), toluene diisocyanate (TDI, 2,6-TDI, 2,4-TDI), (cis/trans) isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) and hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI,1,6-HDI) in various matrices for concentrations ranging from 0,01 % to 2,0 % mass fraction. For higher concentrations, a suitable dilution before the derivatization with p-nitrobenzyl-N-propylamine (PNBPA) is performed. The measurements are carried out using ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) with a multiple wavelength detector.

Peintures et vernis — Dosage des diisocyanates monomères dans les produits de peinture et produits similaires par chromatographie en phase liquide haute performance couplée à un détecteur ultraviolet (HPLC-UV)

Le présent document spécifie une méthode de dosage quantitatif des diisocyanates monomères dans les produits de peinture, les adhésifs et autres matériaux liquides ou pâteux. La présente méthode est applicable à la quantification des diisocyanates monomères suivants: le diisocyanate de diphénylméthylène (MDI, 2,4’-MDI et 4,4’-MDI), le diisocyanate de toluène (TDI, 2,6-TDI, 2,4-TDI), le diisocyanate d’isophorone (IPDI) (cis/trans) et le diisocyanate d’hexaméthylène (HDI, 1,6-HDI) présents dans différentes matrices à des concentrations comprises entre 0,01 % et 2,0 % en fraction massique. Pour les concentrations plus élevées, une dilution appropriée précède la dérivatisation à la p-nitrobenzyle-N-propylamine (PNBPA). Les mesurages sont réalisés par chromatographie en phase liquide ultra-haute performance (UHPLC) avec un détecteur à longueurs d’ondes multiples.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
ISO draws attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use
of (a) patent(s). ISO takes no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed

Introduction
The analytical method described in this document was developed in 2011. The validity of this method
has been continuously tested until it was finalized in 2015 for the low content monomer diisocyanate
under 0,20 % mass fraction. Several internal interlaboratory tests have clearly demonstrated its
reproducibility. Moreover, under the framework of interlaboratory tests organized by the Association
of the European Adhesive and Sealant Industry (FEICA), it has been shown that the described method is
accurate in determining monomer diisocyanate content in various polyurethane (PU) matrices.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 6923:2023(E)
Paints and varnishes — Determination of monomeric
diisocyanate content in coating materials and similar
products using high performance liquid chromatography
with ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV)
1 Scope
This document specifies a method for the quantitative determination of monomeric diisocyanate
content in coating materials, adhesives and other liquid or pasty materials.
This method is suitable for the quantification of the following monomeric diisocyanates: methylene
diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI, 2,4’-MDI and 4,4’-MDI), toluene diisocyanate (TDI, 2,6-TDI, 2,4-TDI), (cis/
trans) isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI) and hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI,1,6-HDI) in various
matrices for concentrations ranging from 0,01 % to 2,0 % mass fraction. For higher concentrations, a
suitable dilution before the derivatization with p-nitrobenzyl-N-propylamine (PNBPA) is performed.
The measurements are carried out using ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) with
a multiple wavelength detector.

4 Principle
The sample is directly weighed into a 10 ml measuring flask (the mass depends on the isocyanate
content). The flask is filled with dry acetonitrile to the mark. Subsequently, in a vial, an aliquot of the
solution is derivatised with PNBPA in dry acetonitrile (1+1 by volume). After filtration, the clear solution
is injected directly into the HPLC.
