NOTES: *Propylene purity is obtained by subtracting the sum of all the hydrocarbon and non-hydrocarbon impurities as obtained by ASTM D-2712. ASTM methods referenced are not necessarily identical in all details to those methods used by PETROKEMYA. ASTM references cited are solely for convenience of the user and in no way constitute a guarantee of measurement by the ASTM method as written.
危险和安全
Inhalation of the gas causes narcosis (paralysis) and irregular heart activity.

应用
Propylene, an important feedstock for the petrochemicals industry, is used in the production of polypropylene, acrylonitrile, propylene glycols, cumene, butyraldehydes, acrolein and other products.
存储和处理
Propylene is stored as a refrigerated liquid at -470°C and transported by refrigerated vessels. Tanks and pipes should be made of stainless steel or nickel alloys with suitable insulation. It can be transported by tank trucks in the same manner as LPG.
包装
Cryogenic tankers (fully refrigerated or semi-refrigerated vessels). UN or ID No. 1077.
