Monitoring 1,3 Butadiene for TWA PEL

From PID Analyzers
 

 

1,3-butadiene (BD) is a colorless, noncorrosive, gas with a mild aromatic odor. The lower explosive limit is 2%, and the upper explosive limit is 11.5%. It is highly reactive, dimerizes to 4-vinylcyclohexene, and polymerizes easily. As a result of its low odor threshold, high flammability and explosiveness, BD has been handled with extreme care in the industry. The Chemical Abstracts service registry # is 106-99-0. BD is a major commodity product of the petrochemical industry. EPA identified 140 major, minor and potential uses of BD in the chemical industry.
