FOREWORD
This Indian Standard was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized by the Alcohols andAllied Products Sectional Committee had been approved by the Petroleum, Coal and Related Products DivisionCouncil.
Acetaldehyde is a normal intermediate product in the respiration of higher plants. It occurs in process in all ripefruits. Acetaldehyde is an intermediate product in the decomposition of sugars in the body and hence occurs intraces in blood. Acetaldehyde is also an important intermediate in the production of acetic acid, acetic anhydride,ethyl acetate, peracetic acid, pentaerythritol, chloral, glycol, alkylamines and pyridines.
Acetaldehyde has a general narcotic action, which prevents coughing. It causes irritation of the eye, mucusmembranes and accelerates heart action. Acetaldehyde also appears to paralyze respiratory muscles when breathedin high concentrate ion it causes headache and sore throat. Prolonged exposure causes a decrease of red and whiteblood cells and also sustained rise in blood pressure. The maximum allowable concentration of acetaldehyde in airis 200 ppm. However, in a normal industrial operation, there is no hazard in handling acetaldehyde providednormal precautions are taken.
The Committee responsible for the formulation of the standard felt the necessity of including a method fordetermination of formaldehyde content. The method is under development and till it is evolved, the requirementof’ formaldehyde content’ has not been included.
The composition of the Committee responsible for formulation of this standard is given in Annex D.
For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value,observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with1S 2:1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised)’. The number of significant places retained in therounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard.

DETERMINATION OF PARALDEHYDE CONTENT
B-1 OUTLINE OF THE METHOD
A 4 percent water solution of acetaldehyde is injectedinto the heated injection port of the gas chromatography.The vapours are lead into the chromatographic columnwherein the vaporized constituents of the sample areseparated out by virtue of their differing physicothem ical interaction with the stationary phase. For theseparation to be efficient, it is necessary that the columnis maintained at the temperature suggested throughoutthe time required for the resolution of the constituents.As the sample enters the detector, it gives a signalcorresponding to the amount of particular constituentleaving the column. From the specific area undervarious peaks corresponding to specific constituents,the quantities of different constituents are determined.

SAMPLING OF ACETALDEHYDE
C-1 GENERAL REQUIREMENTS OFSAMPLING
C-1. 1 In drawing, preparing, storing and handling testsamples the following precautions and directions shallbe observed.
C-1.2 Samples shall be taken in a protected area withgood ventilation.
C-1.3 Precautions shall be taken to protect the samples,the material being sampled, the sampling instrumentand the containers for samples from adventitiouscontamination.
C-1.4 To draw a representative sample, the contentsof each container selected for sampling shall be mixedas thoroughly as possible by shaking, stirring, rollingor by any other suitable means.
C-1.5 The samples shall be placed in suitable, clean,dry and air-tight, atnber-coloured glass or metalcontainers on which the material has no action.
C-1.6 The sample containers shall be of such a sizethat they are almost completely tilled by the sample.
C-1.7 Each sample container shall be sealed air-tightwith a suitable stopper after filling and marked withthe manufacturer’s name or trade-mark, the month andyear of manufacture.of the material, the batch number(if available) and other details of sampling, such as thedate of sampling, sampler’s name, etc.
C-1.8 The sample of acetaldehyde should be handledonly in a fume hood which is free from open flames,electric heaters and other sources of ignitions. Allsamples shall be cooled in ice baths before thecontainers are opened. Acetaldehyde is weighed insealed glass atnpou]e. The actual procedure for fillingand sealing the ampoule varies. One convenient methodis to pack commercial available ampoules in powderedsolid carbon dioxide, introduce the specimen by meansof chilled hypodermic syringe and seal the ampoulewith a glass torch.
C-2 SAMPLING INSTRUMENT
C-2.1 It is made of thick glass or metal on which thematerial has no action and is 20 to 40 mm in diameterand 400 to 800 mm in length (see Fig. 2).
The upper and lower ends are conical and reach 5 to10 mm diameter at the narrow ends. Handling isfacilitated by two rings at the upper end. For drawingsample, the apparatus is first closed at the top with the

thumb or a stopper and lowered till a desired depth isreached. It is then opened for a short period to admitthe material at the desired depth and finally closed andwithdrawn.
C-2.1.1 For small containers, the size of the samplingtube may be altered suitably.
C-3 SCALE OF SAMPLING
C-3.1 Lot
In any consignment, all the containers of the same sizeand drawn from the same batch of manufacture shallconstitute a lot. If a consignment is known to consistof different batches of manufacture or different sizesof containers, the containers belonging to same batchand size shall be grouped together and each such groupshall constitute a separate lot.
C-3.2 For ascertaining the conformity of the materialin a lot to the requirements of the specification, testsshall be carried out for each lot separately. For thispurpose the number of containers to be selected from alot shall depend on the size of the lot and shall be inaccordance with the CO12 and 3 of Table 2.
C-3.3 These containers shall be selected at randomfrom the lot. For this purpose, reference may be madeto 1S 4905. However, if this standard is not available,

the following procedure may be followed:
Arrange all the containers in the lot in a systematicmanner and starting from any container, countthem as 1, 2 .....up to r, where r is the integral partof the N/n (N being the lot size and n the numberof containers to be selected). Every rth containerthus counted shall be withdrawn till the requisitenumber of containers is obtained.
C-4 PREPARATION OF TEST SAMPLES
C-4. 1 From each of the containers selected accordingto C-3.3, a small representative portion of the materialsufficient for carrying out tests as indicated in 3shzill be drawn with the help of the sampling tube(.YCWC-2.1). These shall constitute the individualsamples.
C-4.2 Out of these portions, equal quantity of materialshall be taken and mixed thoroughly to form acomposite sample, not less than 1 500 ml. Thecomposite test sample shall be divided into three equalparts, one for the purchaser, another for the supplierand the third to be used as a referee sample.
C-4.3 The composite samples shall be transferred tocontainers of 600-ml capacity and shall be sealed andmarked with full identification particulars givenin C-1.7.
C-4.4 The referee test samples shall also bear the sealof both the purchaser and the supplier. It shall be keptat a place agreed to between the purchaser and thesupplier, to be used in the case of any dispute betweenthe two.
C-5 NUMBER OF TESTS
C-5.1 Test for ‘total aldehydes as acetaldehyde’ (asper Table 1) shall be performed on the individualsample.
C-5.2 Tests for the determination of all the remainingcharacteristics, specified in 3, shall be performed onthe composite sample.
C-6 CRITERIA FOR CONFORMITY
