ASTM D4126-02(2012) - 1.3.2012
 
1. Scope

1.1 This specification covers vapor-degreasing grade and general solvent grade 1,1,1-trichloroethane. High purity grades of 1,1,1-trichloroethane are available but should not be evaluated by this specification.

1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of 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.

Note 1—Practices D3844 and D4276, STP 403A and MNL2 provide additional important information on vapor degreasing and solvent properties.
