This document is not an ASTM standard and is intended only to provide the user of an ASTM standard an indication of what changes have been made to the previous version. Because
it may not be technically possible to adequately depict all changes accurately, ASTM recommends that users consult prior editions as appropriate. In all cases only the current version
of the standard as published by ASTM is to be considered the official document.
Designation: D5396 − 04 (Reapproved 2010) D5396 − 04 (Reapproved 2015)
Standard Specification for
1,2
Reclaimed Perchloroethylene
This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5396; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year of
original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. A
superscript epsilon (´) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.
1. Scope
1.1 This specification covers the grade of perchloroethylene typically needed in various industries for noncritical applications,
such as in metal cleaning formulations. It is not recommended for dry cleaning applications (see Specification D4081). It may be
used as a reference document by purchasers or by persons establishing in-house perchloroethylene recovery programs.
