Standard Specification for Methyl Isobutyl Ketone

ABSTRACT
This specification covers methyl isobutyl ketone (99.0 % grade). The properties specified for methyl isobutyl ketone shall be determined in accordance with the following test methods: apparent specific gravity; color; distillation range; nonvolatile matter; odor; water; acidity; and alcohol and purity.
SCOPE
1.1 This specification covers methyl isobutyl ketone (99.0 % grade).  
1.2 For specific hazard information and guidance, see the supplier's Material Safety Data Sheet for materials listed in this specification.  
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 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.  
1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.  
1.6 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.
