About This Item
ASTM E2106 is the ASTM standard for general techniques of liquid chromatography-infrared (LC/IR) and size exclusion chromatography-infrared (SEC/IR) analyses. It provides a technical framework for combining chromatography with infrared detection, helping users approach sample analysis in a more consistent and structured way. This matters for laboratories that need reliable separation and identification workflows, especially when infrared information is an important part of the evaluation.
Purpose of ASTM E2106
The purpose of ASTM E2106 is to describe general techniques for LC/IR and SEC/IR analysis rather than a narrow test method for one material. By outlining the use of liquid chromatography and size exclusion chromatography with infrared detection, the standard supports more consistent analytical practice and clearer interpretation of results. It is useful as a technical reference for establishing repeatable workflows, selecting suitable chromatography-IR approaches, and aligning laboratory practice with a recognized ASTM standard.
Common use cases of ASTM E2106
This standard is commonly used in laboratory settings where chromatographic separation and infrared detection are applied together. It may be relevant for analysts working with complex mixtures, polymer-related samples, or other materials that benefit from size exclusion or liquid chromatography followed by IR analysis. ASTM E2106 can also support method development, comparison of analytical approaches, and routine technical review when a standardized reference for LC/IR and SEC/IR techniques is needed.
Why ASTM E2106 matters
ASTM E2106 matters because it helps promote consistency in how LC/IR and SEC/IR analyses are performed and understood. For laboratories, a recognized practice can reduce variation in setup, reporting, and evaluation, which supports better quality control and more dependable technical decisions. It may also assist procurement and compliance teams when identifying a standards-based approach for chromatography-IR workflows. Using ASTM E2106 can improve confidence in analytical results and reduce risk from inconsistent practice.
