Standard Specification for Refined Phenol

ABSTRACT
This specification covers refined phenol. The refined phenol shall conform to the required water content, solidification point, appearance and molten color when sampled and tested.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers refined phenol.
1.2 Consult current OSHA regulations and supplier's Material Safety Data Sheets, and local regulations for all materials listed in this specification.
1.3 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 E 29.
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 and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
