The following BSI references relate to the work on this standard: Committee reference CIC/4 Draft for comment80/51209 DC ISBN 0 580 13372 9 Foreword This Part ofBS6392 is technically equivalent toISO1388 “Ethanol

4、for industrial use Methods of test” Part7 “Determination of methanol content methanol contents between0,01 and0,20% (V/V) Photometric method”, published in1981 by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). For ease of production, the text ofISO1388-7:1981, with the omission of the Ann

5、ex, has been used for this British Standard. Some terminology and certain conventions are not identical with those used in British Standards; attention is drawn especially to the following. The comma has been used as a decimal marker. In British Standards it is current practice to use a full point o

6、n the baseline as the decimal marker. In3.3.2 reference is made to a sintered glass filter funnel grade number4A complying withBS1752. WhenBS1752 is revised it is expected that it will be identical withISO4793 in which the equivalent to grade4A ofBS1752:1963 is porosity gradeP10. This standard descr

7、ibes a method only and should not be used as a specification defining limits of purity. Reference to the standard should indicate that the method of test used is in accordance withBS6392-6. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British St
