Significance and Use

4.1 Moisture content of the cellulose ester can be used to estimate the dry weight of the cellulose ester. Since cellulose esters are desiccants, their moisture content can vary greatly depending on storage.

Scope

1.1 These test methods cover procedures for testing cellulose acetate.

1.2 The test procedures appear in the following sections:

 

Sections

Ash

8 to 11

Color and Haze

67 to 72

Combined Acetyl or Acetic Acid Content

 

 Test Method A. Solution Method

Moisture Content

4 to 7

Primary Hydroxyl Content

34 to 39

Sulfur or Sulfate Content

40 to 45

Viscosity

63 to 66

1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
