1.1 This test method covers the determination of the efficacy of solvent systems for dissolving either water-formed deposits that have been removed from the underlying material or synthetically prepared deposits.
1.2 The nature of this test method is such that statements of precision and bias as determined by round robin tests could mislead users of the test method (see Sections 11 and 12). Therefore, no precision and bias statements are made.
1.3 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.
