33、EN 896:2012 (E) 9 Users of this product should check the national regulations in order to clarify whether it is of appropriate purity for treatment of water intended for human consumption, taking into account raw water quality, required dosage, contents of other impurities and additives used in the
34、products not stated in this product standard. Limits have been given for impurities and chemical parameters where these are likely to be present in significant quantities from the current production process and raw materials. If the production process or raw materials leads to significant quantities
35、 of impurities, by-products or additives being present, this shall be notified to the user. 4.2 Composition of commercial product The product shall contain not less than a mass fraction of 96 % of NaOHfor the solid form. Typical concentration for solutions of sodium hydroxide is either a mass fracti
36、on of 50 % or 30 % , and shall be in any case within the manufacturers stated tolerance. 4.3 Impurities and main by-products The product shall conform to the requirements specified in Table 1.
