1、Designation: D5234 92 (Reapproved 2017)Standard Guide forAnalysis of Ethylene Product1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5234; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in

2、 parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This guide covers and provides direction for the analysisof ethylene product in a way that allows the analyst to know thepossible test methods,

3、the units of measure, and the potentialconcentrations range of possible components, so that theconsistency of the analytical measurements is improved. Thisguide is not intended to be used, nor to be construed in anyway, as a set of specifications for ethylene product.1.2 The values stated in SI unit

4、s are to be regarded as thestandard.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety 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 limi

Significance and Use4.1 When the various producers and users of ethyleneproduct deal with the results obtained in analytical testing,inconsistency of units and test met

9、hods may cause majorerrors. This guide provides an overview of the typical concen-trations of the possible components found in ethylene product,the methods used in analysis, and the units of measure. Thisoverview is intended to be used to improve the consistency ofmethods and the units reported so t

10、hat errors are minimized.Each producer and user of ethylene product should immedi-ately review this guide to improve their awareness of thevarious analytical methods in use, the units of measure, andconcentration levels of the possible components.4.2 Although this guide is not to be used for specifi

11、cations,it can provide a starting point for the various parties to developmutually agreed upon specifications that meet their respectiverequirements. It can also be used as a starting point in findingsuitable test methods for ethylene components.5. Sampling5.1 In general, sample ethylene product usi
