It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use. For specific hazardstatements, see Section 2 , 11.1.4, and 11.1.7.2. Summary of Test Method

5、2.1 When methyl cellulose or hydroxypropyl methyl cellu-lose is reacted with hydriodic acid, 1 mol of methyl iodide and1 mol of isopropyl iodide are liberated for each mole ofmethoxyl and hydroxypropoxyl that is substituted on thecellulose chain. The methyl iodide and isopropyl iodide areextracted i

6、n situ with o-xylene and quantitated by gas chroma-tography using an internal standard technique.3. Significance and Use3.1 This test method determines the methoxyl and hydrox-ypropoxyl content of cellulose ethers by a Zeisel-gas chro-matographic technique.3.2 Substitution levels affect solution pro
