What is BS 3762-3.1- Anionic-active matter content in detergents about?
BS 3762 discusses the analysis of formulated detergents. BS 3762-3.1 belongs to the BS 3762 multi-series and discusses the determination of anionic-active matter content.
BS 3762-3.1 specifies a manual or mechanical method for the determination of anionic-active matter present in detergents.
Who is BS 3762-3.1 - Anionic-active matter content in detergents for?
BS 3762-3.1 on the determination of anionic-active matter present in detergents is useful for:
- Detergent manufacturers
- Quality control personnel
- Inspection personnel
- Testing Laboratories
Why should you use BS 3762-3.1 - Anionic-active matter content in detergents?
BS 3762-3.1 is applicable to solids or to aqueous solutions of the active material. The relative molecular mass of the anionic active matter has to be known. The manual method is thus applicable to the determination of alkylbenzene sulfonates; alkane sulfonates, sulfates and hydroxysulfates; alkylphenol sulfates; fatty alcohol methoxy- and ethoxysulfates; dialkylsulfosuccinates and other active materials containing one hydrophilic group per molecule.
The mechanical method is applicable to all the above-mentioned products provided it gives results comparable with those obtained using the manual method. BS 3762-3.1 provides you with the reagents, apparatus, and sampling required for the test method. BS 3762-3.1 guides you with the test procedure and expression of results. BS 3762-3.1 helps you to manufacture safe formulated detergents.
