Part 3-2 of IEC 62321 specifies the screening analysis of the total bromine (Br) in homogeneous materials found in polymers and electronics by using the analytical technique of combustion ion chromatography (C-IC).
This test method has been evaluated for ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), EMC (epoxy molding compound), and PE (polyethylene) within the concentration ranges as specified in Table 1.
The use of this method for other types of materials or concentration ranges outside those specified below has not been evaluated.
