Chloroprene (production - from butadiene chlorination)

The activity generating the emissions is chloroprene production, from butadiene chlorination. The reference product is chloroprene. Chloroprene is an organic substance with a CAS no.: 000126-99-8. It is called 2-chlorobuta-1,3-diene under IUPAC naming and its molecular formula is: C4H5Cl. It is liquid under normal conditions of temperature and pressure. The substance is modelled with a purity of 99.9%. There is no publicly available information about the consumption of this substance on a consumer level. On industrial sites, the substance is used for the manufacture of products in the following sectors: is consumed almost exclusively as a starting monomer for the production of the specialized rubber known as polychloroprene, while a small portion is converted to the co-monomer "2,3-dichloro-1,3-butadiene". The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity.
