Standard Specification for Styrene Monomer

ABSTRACT
This specification covers styrene monomer. The purity, aldehydes, peroxides, polymer, inhibitor, ethylbenzene, water, and color shall be tested to meet the requirements specified.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers styrene monomer.
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 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard.
1.4 Consult current OSHA regulations, supplier's Material Safety Data Sheets, and local regulations for all materials used in this specification.
