From: Anthony Thomson [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: March-27-13 8:42 AM To: Bolintineanu, Constantin; [email protected] Subject: RE: [PSES] 60950-1 durability test solvent Constantine, You should read the original post... "Is there a product I can buy at the hardware store that is roughly equivalent to the hexane specified in durability test". Then you should read the eBay listing and not just look at the pictures. The seller is quite clear that the picture shows an e x a m p l e (Methyl Alcohol) of how the n-hexanne will be packaged. The listing then cites the CAS No. of the n-hexane which will be supplied which is indeed 110-54-3. As you say, you have to be careful when it comes to precision and accuracy ;-) Regards, T ----- Original Message ----- From: Bolintineanu, Constantin Sent: 03/27/13 11:38 AM To: Anthony Thomson, [email protected] Subject: RE: [PSES] 60950-1 durability test solvent Anthony, IF we are following the CAS Number, then, this ebay product is definitely not the one specified within the 60950-1 Standard. As per cas.org, a CAS Nr: - Is a unique numeric identifier - Designates only one substance - Has no chemical significance - Is a link to a wealth of information about a specific chemical substance 60950 specifies clearly CAS Nr. 110-54-3; According to the required and specified spec, it is not sufficient to use any n-hexane. IF we would like to test with any n-hexane then we do not need any Standard, and as Rich specified, there will be no precision nor accuracy involved regarding this test. Cheap stuff, similar results: inconclusive.
