1、Designation: E1090 08Standard Test Method forDicumyl Peroxide and Dicumyl Peroxide DecompositionProducts in Resins1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E1090; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year

2、of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope*1.1 This test method covers and is applicable to the deter-mination of dicumyl peroxide2and the decomposition products

3、dimethylbenzyl alcohol and acetophenone in cured and un-cured polyethylene (PE) and ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA)resins. These uncured polymers normally contain from 1 to 2 %dicumyl peroxide, whereas the residual peroxide level in thecured polymers is usually less than 0.1 %.1.2 The values stated in

4、SI units are to be regarded asstandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.3 Review the current Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS)for detailed information concerning toxicity, first aidprocedures, and safety precautions.1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of thes

5、afety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.

Summary of Test Method3.1 Dicumyl peroxide and dimethylbenzyl alcohol are ex-tracted from a cryogenically ground sample with methylenechlo

8、ride. The extract is concentrated, redissolved in methanol,and analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC). Acetophenone is extracted from a separate samplewith methanol and analyzed directly by HPLC. The analysesare performed on a reversed phase octadecylsilane (ODS)column using aceton

9、itrile/water as the mobile phase and anultraviolet detector at 254 nm. The concentration of eachcomponent is determined by the internal standard technique,using peak height ratios of the sample and standard chromato-grams.4. Significance and Use4.1 Knowledge of the peroxide content of uncured PE and

10、EVA samples is required to regulate the degree of crosslinkingin the cured product. As end use applications of the curedproduct can be affected by residual amounts of the peroxide orits decomposition productsdimethylbenzyl alcohol andacetophenoneknowledge of these levels is also important.This test

11、method provides a procedure for determining theconcentration of these compounds. A method for the HPLCassay of dicumyl peroxide is described in Test Method E755.5. Apparatus5.1 Liquid Chromatograph, equipped with a 254-nm UVdetector, injection valve, and an isocratic-solvent deliverysystem capable o

Reactivity varieswidely and some compounds may explode when shocked.While dicumyl peroxide is one of the more stable peroxides,contact with reduci

40、ng agents and sources of heat, sparks, oropen flame must be avoided. Organic peroxides in general areirritating to the skin, eyes, and mucous membranes. Avoidbodily contact and handle only in a well-ventilated area.7.2 Small quantities of solid or molten dicumyl peroxidecan be safely handled at temp

41、eratures up to 55C. Dicumylperoxide should not be heated above 55C as the rate ofperoxide decomposition rapidly increases with increasing tem-peratures above this point.7.3 Only a water bath that has been preheated to the desiredtemperature and removed from the heat source should be usedfor warming

42、vessels containing dicumyl peroxide. Electricallyheated water baths should not be used as they may causelocalized hot spots. Other sources of heat considered unsafe forwarming containers of dicumyl peroxide include ovens, hotplates, and direct steam.13The sole source of supply of the apparatus known
