High Purity Benzene Characterization Test
The High Purity Benzene Characterization Test is a critical analytical service designed to ensure the quality and integrity of high-purity benzene used in various oil and gas, petrochemical, and chemical processes. This test plays an essential role in maintaining compliance with international standards and ensuring product reliability.
Benzene, being one of the most widely used aromatic hydrocarbons, finds extensive application in the synthesis of a variety of organic compounds such as plastics, resins, synthetic rubbers, and dyes. The purity of benzene is paramount to ensure that these derived products meet stringent quality standards.
The test involves multiple steps including sample preparation, instrumental analysis using gas chromatography (GC), and precise quantification of impurities and other components. This process ensures the integrity and consistency of the product, which is crucial for downstream processes and final product formulations.
Our laboratory utilizes advanced analytical instruments to achieve high precision in measurements. The GC system allows for detailed separation and identification of various compounds present in benzene samples. This capability is vital for detecting trace impurities that could compromise the performance or safety of end products.
The test protocol strictly adheres to international standards such as ISO 14655-2, which specifies the method for determining the purity of benzene by gas chromatography. The results are reported in terms of total impurities and specific component percentages, providing a comprehensive overview of sample quality.
Sample preparation is critical in this process to ensure accurate analysis. This involves dissolving the solid or liquid sample into a suitable solvent and filtering it through a fine membrane filter to remove any particulate matter that could interfere with the GC analysis. The filtrate is then injected into the chromatography system.
The instrumentation used for this test includes state-of-the-art gas chromatographs equipped with flame ionization detectors (FID) and thermal conductivity detectors (TCD). These instruments provide high sensitivity, selectivity, and accuracy necessary for detecting even trace amounts of impurities in benzene samples.
Our team of experienced chemists and technicians ensures that each sample is handled meticulously from receipt to final analysis. We maintain strict quality control measures throughout the process to ensure accurate and reliable results.
Applied Standards
| Standard | Description |
|---|---|
| ISO 14655-2 | This international standard specifies the method for determining the purity of benzene by gas chromatography. It provides detailed instructions on sample preparation, instrumental setup, and analysis procedures. |
| ASTM D86 | American Society for Testing and Materials standard that covers the distillation of petroleum products to determine their boiling range. While not directly related to benzene purity testing, it is a crucial reference in petrochemical analysis. |
