*; RESIDUAL VINYL EIJLDRIDE (VCM) ANALYSIS OF TEXAS tlTY YINYL RESIN PRODUCTION MARCH, 1975 HtCtUcu ' APR 0 3 1975 R N WHFFIFR. JR. Author: Supervisor: Date: R. M. Arnold G. F. Tacquard March 26, 1975 Attached in Table I is a sumnary of the residual VCM levels in suspen sion vinyl resins produced in March, 1975. Of particular significance is the re duction in VCM levels which occurred with batch stripping of QSQH-7 and QSQF-7. As shown in Table VIII, a reduction in VCM levels from/\*1000 ppm to <^200 ppm occurred with the commencement of batch stripping of QSQH-7. The complete tabu lation of dryer spot samples, bin samples and final blend samples for suspension resins produced during March are provided in Tables II-XIII. From a total of 22 VYHH bins produced in March, five were analyzed >1 ppm (1.5-3.8). In-bin blending reduced the level to j.l ppm VCM except for one bin (which was classified as VYHG feedstock for VAGH production). One bin of VMCH from a total of 8 bins produced in March analyzed >1 ppm. In-bin blending reduced this bin to < 1 ppm prior to shipment.
