1 Scope
This document specifies:
a) a method for determining the hydrolytic resistance of the interior surfaces of glass
containers when subjected to attack by water at (121 ± 1) °C for (60 ± 1) min. The resistance
is measured by titration of a known aliquot portion of the extraction solution produced
with hydrochloric acid solution, in which case the resistance is inversely proportional
to the volume of acid required;
b) a classification of glass containers according to the hydrolytic resistance of the interior surfaces determined by the
methods specified in this document.
