unambiguously identified by
FTIR
 
R-01 Hydrocarbon with an aromatic content The liquid is aqueous with a
small content of a compo-
nent, which cannot be
unambiguously identified by
FTIR
 
A-01 Hydrocarbon with an aromatic content The liquid contains water,
but also a considerable
amount of a component,
which might be a modified
glycerol
