ASTM E260-96(2006)
Historical Standard: ASTM E260-96(2006) Standard Practice for Packed Column Gas Chromatography
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM E260
1. Scope
1.1 This practice is intended to serve as a general guide to the application of gas chromatography (GC) with packed columns for the separation and analysis of vaporizable or gaseous organic and inorganic mixtures and as a reference for the writing and reporting of GC methods.
Note 1 This practice excludes any form of gas chromatography associated with open tubular (capillary) columns.
1.2 This standard does not purport to address all 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. Specific hazard statements are given in Section 8 and 9.1.3.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
