NF ISO 1279
Essential oils. Determination of the carbonyl value. Potentiometric methods using hydroxylammonium chloride.
Gives two methods for the potentiometric determination of the carbonyl value of essential oils which contain carbonyl compounds. Method 1 is based on a cold oximation reaction with hydrxoylammonium chloride with exception of citronellal which need a low temperature to avoid cyclization phenomena and acetylization. Method 2 is based on a hot oximation reaction with hydroxylammonium chloride and applies to essential oils whose main constituents are ketones which are general oximable only with difficulty.

La présente norme fait partie d'un ensemble de normes applicables aux huiles essentielles, ayant pour objet de caractériser les produits utilisés dans l'industrie de la parfumerie et des arômes. Cette norme a pour objet de déterminer la teneur en constituants carbonylés et l'indice de carbonyle par potentiométrie à froid (pour les huiles essentielles dont les constituants principaux sont des aldéhydes) ou à chaud (pour les huiles essentielles dont les constituants principaux sont les cétones, dont certaines méthylcétones difficilement oximables).
The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.
The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!

- With a single click, add a new language, the Requirements or Redline+ service and add one or more additional users.
- Whether you are in the process of acquiring a standard or it is already available in your personal space, the UPSELL service is available at every stage to help you understand it and implement it within your organization.
