Significance and Use

5.1 Di-tert-butyl peroxide is widely used as a catalyst and reaction initiator. Knowledge of the peroxide content is important in such applications. This test method provides a procedure for determining the active peroxide content of commercial di-tert-butyl peroxide.

Scope

1.1 This test method covers the assay of di-tert-butyl peroxide using gas chromatography. It is applicable to commercial di-tert-butyl peroxide which may contain small amounts of isobutylene, tert-butanol, tert-butyl hydroperoxide, triisobutylenes, and water as impurities.

1.2 The following applies to all specified limits in this specification: for purposes of determining conformance with this specification, an observed value or a calculated value shall be rounded off “to the nearest unit” in the last right-hand digit used in expressing the specification limit, in accordance with the rounding-off method of Practice E29.

1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.

1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Specific hazards statements are given in Section 9.

1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
