RESIDUAL VCM ANALYSIS TEXAS CITY VINYL RESIN PRODUCTION
FEBRUARY, 1976
Author:
R. M. Arnold
/
Supervisor: J G. F. Tacquard
Date:
March 1, 1976
Attached in Table I is a summary of the residual VCM levels in suspension vinyl resin products produced during the month of February. An overall increase in the residual VCM levels of QSAN-7 compared with previous reporting periods is attributed to the substitution of the Klucel 0 suspending agent with Cellosize WP-300, An approximately 35i decrease in residual VCM levels in the vinyl acetate copolymers VSJE-10 and VSKK-10 was observed as compared with production in December and January.
Individual bin and blend data for each suspension resin produced in February are shown in Tables II-VII.
Also shown in Tables yill-IX are residual VCM levels in non-solvent and solvent resins produced during February. Two VYHH bins were reblended during the month to achieve <1 ppm VCM.
