RE:
DSL LISTING FOR VISTA N-550 AND N-575 ALKYLATE
Vista believes the description below, which is now on the provisional DSL is an appropriate description for vista 550L and 575L.
CAS # 67774-74-7; Benzene, C10.13 alkyl derivs.
The typical carbon range distribution for these products is as follows:
550L
575L
10 0.3%
10 13.4
11 30.4
'12 29.0 13 24.0
'14 3.0 '15 0.2
< C10 cin
cli C17 C13 C14 > C15
0.5 8.0 17.0 25.0 35.0 15.0 0.4
Please note that the above distributions are representative only and
may not be exactly what you have received.
However, for DSL
purposes these ranges should provide enough information to describe
the products.
As we have discussed, the most appropriate description for these alkylate products depends on how you view the carbon range allowance in a description. In general, the USEPA has accepted the carbon range that best describes at least 80% of the material. If a broad range description is acceptable for the DSL, then an alternate choice to describe these products would be CAS #68648-87-3, Benzene, C10-16 * alky! derivs.

Thomas G. Grumbles, C.I.H. Manager Environmental Affairs
