2,3,3,3-Tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234yf)
for Industrial Use
1 Scope
This Standard specifies the requirements, test methods, test rules, signs,
packaging, transportation, storage and safety of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene for
industrial use (HFO-1234yf, also referred to as: R1234yf).
This Standard applies to 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene (HFO-1234yf), which is
refined from raw materials such as tetrachloropropene and pentafluoropropane,
applies gas-phase or liquid-phase methods, reacts with anhydrous hydrogen
fluoride under the action of catalyst, which mainly uses single or mixed working
medium to replace tetrafluoroethane (HFC-134a).
Molecular formula: CF3CF-CH2
Relative molecular mass: 114.05 (according to the international relative atomic
mass in 2013);

The standard solutions, preparations and products which are used in the test
method shall be prepared according to the provisions of GB/T 601 and GB/T
603 when no other requirements are specified.
4.1 Appearance
Place the liquid-phase sample in a 50 mL dry colorimetric tube. When the liquid-
phase volume of the sample is about 10 mL, use a dry cloth to dry the frost or
moisture that is attached to the outer wall of the colorimetric tube; observe the
color of the sample, whether it’s turbid or not and whether there is solid particle
or not, in a lateral perspective.
4.2 Determination of the content of 2,3,3-tetrafluoropropene
4.2.1 Method summary
Use gas chromatography; under the selected chromatographic conditions, the
sample passes through the column after vaporization, which separates the
components; use hydrogen flame ionization detector (FID) to detect; use
compensating area normalization method to calculate the content of 2,3,3,3-
tetrafluoropropene.
4.2.2 Reagents
4.2.2.1 Nitrogen: the volume fraction is greater than 99.995%.
4.2.2.2 Hydrogen: the volume fraction is greater than 99.995%.
4.2.2.3 Helium: the volume fraction is greater than 99.995%.
4.2.2.4 Air: it is dried and purified by silica gel or molecular sieve.
4.2.3 Instruments
4.2.3.1 Gas chromatograph: it is equipped with hydrogen flame ionization
detector (FID). Take benzene as the sample; the overall sensitivity requires the
detection-limit D ≤ 1 x 10-11 g/s; the stability shall meet the requirements of GB/T
9722; the linear range shall meet the analysis requirements.
4.2.3.2 Recorder: chromatographic workstation or chromatographic data
processor.
4.2.3.3 Sampling cylinder: double-valve small cylinder, of which the volume is
not less than 150 mL, and the working pressure shall be greater than the
pressure of the same product.
4.2.5.1.3 Preparation of the calibration standard sample
According to the pressure of gas of each impurity component, in the order from
low-pressure component to high-pressure component, use a quantitative tube
which has valves at both ends to gradually add gas of each impurity component
to the gas distribution bottle; use 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene as the background
gas, so as to narrow the content of each impurity with the to-be-test sample.
Balance it for 20 min ~ 30 min. The calibration standard sample is valid for 3d
~ 4d.
The mass mi of the gas of the impurity component i, which is expressed in
grams (g), is calculated according to Formula (1):
Where:
Vi -- the volume of the gas of the added impurity component i, in milliliters (mL);
Mi -- the molar mass of the added impurity component i, in grams per mole
(g/mol);
24 450 -- the value of the volume of 1 mol of gas at 25°C and 101.325 kPa (1
atm), in milliliters (mL).
4.2.5.1.4 Calculation of the content of each impurity component in the
calibration standard sample
The mass fraction wi of the impurity component i in the calibration standard
sample is calculated according to Formula (2):
Where:
mi -- the mass of the impurity component i in the calibration standard sample,
in grams (g);
m -- the mass of the background sample in the calibration standard sample, in
grams (g);
4.2.5.1.5 Determination of relative mass correction factor
Take a certain amount of calibration standard sample; measure according to
fHFO-1234yf -- the correction factor of the peak area of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene;
Ai -- the peak area of the component i;
fi -- relative mass correction factor of the component i.
The arithmetic mean of the results of two parallel determinations is taken as the
report result. The absolute difference between the results of two parallel
measurements shall not be greater than 0.10%.
4.3 Determination of moisture
It shall be performed according to the provisions of Karl Fischer Coulometry of
5.3, or Electrolysis of 5.4 in GB/T 7376-2008. Karl Fischer Coulometry shall be
taken as the arbitration law.
4.4 Determination of acidity
It shall be performed according to provisions of GB/T 33065.
4.5 Determination of evaporation residue
It shall be performed according to provisions of GB/T 33066.
4.6 Determination of non-condensable gas in the gas phase
It shall be performed according to provisions of GB/T 33063. The external
standard method shall be taken as the arbitration law. Typical chromatograms
and relative retention values for the determination of non-condensable gases
in the gas phase of 2,3,3,3-tetrafluoropropene for industrial use are given in
Appendix B. The values of saturated vapor pressure at 25°C are given in
Appendix C.
