1.1 This test method covers the determination of free monomer content of acrylic latexes. Monomers that have been successfully determined by this procedure include
1.2 The volatile composition of acrylic latexes is expected to change with time and environmental factors. This time dependence of the determination may be seen as an artificially large deviation of results, making the method mostly applicable for in-house quality control, where sampling and analysis conditions can be better controlled.
1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. See Section 7 for specific hazard statements.
