The second revision was prepared to upgrade the quality of the gas required by the Electric Lamp Industry by incorporating the limits of impurities, like carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen etc, which were not described earlier. This high purity hydrogen of 99.9 percent purtiy is also used in the production of butane], octanol, polyurethane, polyamides, aniline and hydrogenation of fats and oils. Since the specification calls for high purity standards, the analysis demand instruments having high sensitivity and precision. Hence, the classical glass test sets, orsat apparatus, etc, have been discarded for high purity gas for which only instrumental methods involving electrochemical analyzer, gas chromatography, etc, have been prescribed. This third revision has been undertaken since it has been now technically possible to produce still higher purity ~{~radcof 99,999 percent which finds its use in Electronic Industry, necessity has been felt to revise the standard for incorporating the ultra pure grade of the hydrogen gas. Since this grade requires stricter control of impurities, analysis of impurities are done with a different approach. 7’he impurities are concentrated by absorption and determining by chromatography. The composition of the Committee responsible for formulation of this standard is given at Annex N. For the purpose of deciding whether a particular requirement of this standard is complied with, the final value, observed or calculated, expressing the result of a test or analysis, shall be rounded off in accordance with IS 2: 1960 ‘Rules for rounding off numerical values (revised’. The number of significant places retained in the rounded off value should be the same as that of the specified value in this standard. .-$ ,.
