This standard BS EN ISO 6401:2022 Plastics. Poly(vinyl chloride). Determination of residual vinyl chloride monomer using gas-chromatographic method is classified in these ICS categories:
83.080.20 Thermoplastic materials
This document specifies a method for the determination of vinyl chloride monomer in homopolymer and copolymer resins of vinyl chloride and compounded materials. The method is based on sample dissolution and headspace gas chromatography. Concentrations of vinyl chloride in the range 0,1 mg/kg to 3,0 mg/kg can be determined.
