This International Standard specifies a gas-chromatographic method for determining monomeric diisocyanates such as toluene diisocyanate¹⁾, hexamethylene diisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate²⁾, diphenylmethane diisocyanate³⁾ and other diisocyanates in isocyanate resins as defined in Clause 3 and in solutions prepared from such resins, insofar as these are used in the formulation of paints and similar coating materials.
