Abstract: 5.1 The methods in this guide can be used for screening of fabric softener products or to evaluate their performance, through a single cycle or multiple accumulative cycles, relative to a designated reference product or a ... -
Standard Guide for Soil Sampling from the Vadose Zone (Withdrawn 2024)
Abstract: 5.1 Chemical analyses of liquids, solids, and gases from the vadose zone can provide information on the presence, possible source, migration route, and physical-chemical behavior of contaminants. Remedial or mitigating ... -
Standard Test Method for Total Carbon and Organic Carbon in Water by Ultraviolet, or Persulfate Oxidation, or Both, and Infrared Detection
Abstract: 5.1 This test method is used for determination of the carbon content of water from a variety of natural, domestic, and industrial sources. In its most common form, this test method is used to measure organic carbon as a ... -
Standard Specification for Asphalt Roof Cement, Asbestos-Free
Abstract: This specification covers the testing and requirements for two types and two classes of asbestos-free asphalt roof cement consisting of an asphalt base, volatile petroleum solvents, and mineral and/or other stabilizers, ... -
Standard Test Method for Sulfide Ion in Water (Withdrawn 2024)
Abstract: 5.1 Sulfide ion is found in ground waters and wastewater, causing odor and corrosion problems. If acidified, these waters can release hydrogen sulfide, which is extremely toxic even at low levels. This test method provides ... -
Standard Test Methods for Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria in Water and Water-Formed Deposits
Abstract: 5.1 Sulfate-reducing bacteria are widely distributed in marine and fresh water muds which, in consequence, frequently are laden with the hydrogen sulfide produced by these organisms during dissimilatory sulfate reduction. ... -
