Standard Specification for Cyclohexane 999

ABSTRACT
This specification covers a grade of cyclohexane identified as "cyclohexane 999." The material shall conform to the required purity, benzene content, n-hexane content, methylcyclohexane content, methylcyclopentane content, sulfur content, appearance, color, and distillation range.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers a grade of cyclohexane identified as “cyclohexane 999.”  
1.2 The following applies to all specified limits in this standard: for purposes of determining conformance with this standard, 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 Consult current OSHA regulations, supplier’s Safety Data Sheets, and local regulations for all materials used in this specification.  
1.4 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.
