Historical Standard: ASTM D2593-93(1998) Standard Test Method for Butadiene Purity and Hydrocarbon Impurities by Gas Chromatography
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM D2593
1. Scope
1.1 This test method provides for the determination of butadiene-1,3 purity and impurities such as propane, propylene, isobutane, n-butane, butene-1, isobutylene, propadiene, trans -butene-2, cis -butene-2, butadiene-1,2, pentadiene-1,4, and, methyl, dimethyl, ethyl, and vinyl acetylene in polymerization grade butadiene by gas chromatography. Impurities including butadiene dimer, carbonyls, inhibitor, and residue are measured by appropriate ASTM procedures and the results used to normalize the component distribution obtained by chromatography.
Note 1-Other impurities present in commercial butadiene must be calibrated and analyzed. Other impurities were not tested in the cooperative work on this test method. Note 2-This test method can be used to check for pentadiene-1,4 and other C5>>s instead of Test Method D1088.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.> For specific hazard statements, see Notes 4, 5, and 9.
