in sample B of 0.019%, in sample C of 0.034%, in sample D of 0.008%, F samples
of 0.079%, samples H by 0.027%. In sample E, sample G and sample I when
analyzed there is no chlorine content. The content of chlorine on the second
immersion is in sample A of 0.019%, in sample B of 0.015%, in sample C of
