1、Designation: D5991 17Standard Practice forSeparation and Identification of Poly(Vinyl Chloride) (PVC)Contamination in Poly(Ethylene Terephthalate) (PET) Flake1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5991; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal ado
2、ption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This practice covers four procedures for separation andqualitative ide
3、ntification of poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) con-tamination in poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) flakes.NOTE 1Although not presented as a quantitative method, procedurespresented in this practice may be used to provide quantitative results at thediscretion of the user. The user assumes the responsibil
4、ity to verify thereproducibility of quantitative results. Data from an independent sourcesuggest a PVC detection level of 200 ppm (w/w) based on an originalsample weight of 454 g.1.2 Procedure A is based on different fluorescence of PVCand PET when these polymers are exposed to ultraviolet (UV)light
5、.1.3 Procedure B is an oven test based upon the charring ofPVC when it is heated in air at 235C.1.4 Procedures C and D are dye tests based on differentialstaining of PVC and PET.NOTE 2Other polymers (for example, PETG) also absorb the stain orbrightener. Such interferences will result in false posit

Summary of Practice4.1 For the Beilstein Test, chlorine-containing materialsheated in a flame in contact with a copper wire produce acharacteristic green flame.4.2 With Procedure A,
11、 a known amount of PET flakes isexposed to ultraviolet radiation. PET normally fluoresces witha blue or violet color. Flakes fluorescing with different colorsare removed, weighed, and identified as PVC if they burn witha bright green flame when heated on a copper wire.4.3 With Procedure B, PET flake
12、s are heated in an ovenmaintained at 235 6 5C. After a minimum of 45 min, theflakes are visually examined with removal and subsequentweighing of black, charred pieces. Pieces are confirmed asPVC using the same flame test mentioned in 4.1.4.4 With Procedure C, PET flakes are soaked in a blueacetone d
13、ye solution that preferentially stains any PVC flakes.These flakes are visually identified and subsequently removed,and weighed. The identification of PVC flakes is confirmedwith the flame test.1This practice is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee D20 on Plastics andis the direct responsibility
