Overview
ASTM D5248-04(2020) is the internationally recognized standard specification for reclaimed 1,1,2-trichloro 1,2,2-trifluoroethane (also known as CFC-113). Developed by ASTM International, this standard outlines the requirements for three distinct grades of reclaimed 1,1,2-trichloro 1,2,2-trifluoroethane, establishing a consistent baseline for purity and quality. It is widely referenced by industries involved in solvent recovery, purchasing, and in-house reclamation programs for this chlorofluorocarbon.
The standard aligns with globally accepted principles stipulated by the World Trade Organization's Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee, ensuring compatibility with international regulatory frameworks.
Key Topics
Three Distinct Grades:
- Type I: Recognized for use in precision applications requiring the highest purity.
- Type II: Suitable for less demanding precision applications.
- Type III: Intended for general-purpose, technical-grade uses.
Critical Testing Parameters:
- Specific Gravity: Ensures correct chemical properties for industrial processes.
- Chloride Content: Indicates the level of potential corrosive contaminants.
- Acid Number: Assesses acidity, relevant for sensitive applications (applies to Type I only).
- Non-volatile Residue: Measures solid impurities remaining after evaporation.
- Water Content: Critical for performance and equipment safety.
- 1,1,2-Trichloro 1,2,2-Trifluoroethane Content: Validates minimum concentration to ensure effectiveness.
- 1,1,1-Trichloroethane Content: Maximum limits to prevent unwanted side reactions.
- Color and Appearance: Visual indicators of product quality.
These parameters help buyers and recovery managers verify that the recovered or reclaimed solvent meets the required specifications for their specific application.
Applications
1,1,2-Trichloro 1,2,2-Trifluoroethane is widely used in:
- Precision Cleaning: Especially within electronics, aerospace, and optical sectors for components where residue and contamination must be minimized.
- Degreasing: Removal of oils, greases, and other contaminants from metal parts and assemblies.
- Solvent Recovery Programs: Used as a benchmark for operators reclaiming or recycling spent halogenated solvents.
- Industrial Processes: Applications ranging from general cleaning to use as a technical-grade solvent in manufacturing.
By adhering to ASTM D5248-04(2020), organizations can:
- Ensure product consistency, safety, and compliance with regulatory standards.
- Facilitate procurement processes by referencing a globally sanctioned specification.
- Improve sustainability via validated solvent recovery and reuse.
Related Standards
Several ASTM standards are referenced for complementary testing and validation, including:
- ASTM D2111: Test methods for specific gravity and density of halogenated organic solvents.
- ASTM D2108: Test method for color of halogenated organic solvents (Platinum-Cobalt Scale).
- ASTM D2109: Test methods for nonvolatile matter in halogenated organic solvents.
- ASTM D3401: Water content measurement in halogenated organic solvents.
- ASTM D3443: Test method for chloride in trichlorotrifluoroethane.
- ASTM D3444: Test method for total acid number of trichlorotrifluoroethane.
- ASTM D3741: Methods for evaluating appearance of admixtures containing halogenated solvents.
- ASTM D6806: Analysis of halogenated organic solvents by gas chromatography.
These standards provide additional assurance of compliance, supporting the primary requirements and promoting reliable quality assessment in globally diverse industries.
