Summary of Test Method3.1 A known

8、 amount of internal standard is added to asample of isopropylbenzene. The prepared sample is mixedand analyzed by a gas chromatograph equipped with a flameionization detector (FID). The peak area of each impurity andthe internal standard is measured and the amount of eachimpurity is calculated from

9、the ratio of the peak area of theinternal standard versus the peak area of the impurity. Purity byGC (the isopropylbenzene content) is calculated by subtractingthe sum of the impurities found from 100.00. Results arereported in weight percent.4. Significance and Use4.1 This test method is suitable f

10、or setting specifications onthe materials referenced in 1.2 and for use as an internal qualitycontrol tool where isopropylbenzene is produced or is used ina manufacturing process. It may also be used in developmentor research work involving isopropylbenzene.4.2 This test method is useful in determin

11、ing the purity ofisopropylbenzene with normal impurities present includingdiisopropylbenzenes. If extremely high boiling or unusualimpurities are present in the isopropylbenzene, this test methodwould not necessarily detect them and the purity calculationwould be erroneous.4.3 Cumene hydroperoxide,

12、if present, will yield decompo-sition products that will elute in the chromatogram therebygiving incorrect results.4.4 The nonaromatic hydrocarbons commonly present fromthe isopropylbenzene manufacturing process will interfere withthe determination of benzene when Column A in Table 1 isused.1This te
