Summary of Test Method4.1 In this test method, a sample of the silane is analyzed bygas chromatography in order
6、to determine the amount ofvolatile components. From the peak areas in the chromato-gram, the percents by weight of volatiles are totaled anddesignated as the total volatile impurities or volatile by-products.5. Significance and Use5.1 The amount of volatile components reflects the impuritylevel in t
