7、3. Summary of Test Method 3.1 A portion of the test sample is analyzed by temperature-programmed, capillary gas chromatography over a DB-wax polyethylene glycol column, using ame ionization detection. For quantication, the External Standard Technique or the Internal Standard (Marker) Technique, usin

When applying the Internal Standard Technique, the standard addition technique is used to eliminate the effect of other impurities present in the glycols. For this purpose, a blank glycol is used, as 100% pure glycol samples are not available. 4. Si
