Abstract
This specification establishes the properties and requirements for sec-butyl alcohol for use in paint, varnish, lacquer, and related products. Specimens shall be sampled and tested as appropriate, and shall adhere to the following requirements: apparent specific gravity; color (Pt-Co scale); distillation range (initial boiling point and dry point); nonvolatile matter; water; and acidity as acetic acid.
Scope
1.1 This specification covers sec-butyl alcohol for use in paint, varnish, lacquer, and related products.
1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.3 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.
1.4 For hazard information and guidance, see the supplier's Material Safety Data Sheet.
1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
