BIS Certification for Acrylonitrile IS 12540: 1988

Acrylonitrile

Product Description

Acrylonitrile (CHN) is a critical industrial chemical with a wide range of applications, including the production of synthetic fibers like Nylon and Acrylic, manufacturing resins and plastics, and in the production of nitrile rubber used in automotive and industrial sectors. Compliance with IS 12540:1988 guarantees that Acrylonitrile meets the required purity, safety, and performance standards, ensuring its reliable and safe use in these vital industries.

Introduction

As per the Quality Control Order 2023, DPIIT mandates BIS certification for Acrylonitrile under IS 12540:1988, effective from January 1, 2024. This regulation ensures that only certified Acrylonitrile is produced and marketed in India, ensuring the highest standards of quality and safety in industries dependent on Acrylonitrile for critical manufacturing processes.

Why BIS Certification is Necessary for Acrylonitrile

BIS certification guarantees that Acrylonitrile meets industry standards as per IS 12540:1988, confirming its suitability for critical industrial applications. The certification ensures that Acrylonitrile adheres to all safety and environmental regulations, promoting safe handling, storage, and use. Non-compliance with these standards may result in penalties under the Bureau of Indian Standards Act, 2016, making certification essential for manufacturers seeking to ensure both legal compliance and product safety.

Overview of Indian Standard IS 12540:1988

IS 12540:1988 outlines key quality requirements for Acrylonitrile, including strict purity standards with acceptable limits on impurities like water, acetone, and byproducts. It also specifies essential physical properties such as density, boiling point, and flashpoint, along with guidelines for chemical composition, ensuring that concentrations of cyanide, hydrocyanic acid, and other components remain within safe limits. Additionally, the standard includes packaging and labeling requirements to ensure safe storage and prevent contamination. BIS certification ensures compliance with these standards, guaranteeing the safe, efficient, and reliable use of Acrylonitrile in industrial applications.
