METHOD FOR STORING FLUOROBUTENE
Provided is a method for storing a fluorobutene by which decomposition is unlikely to proceed during storage. A fluorobutene represented by general formula C 4 H x F y where x is 0 or more and 7 or less, y is 1 or more and 8 or less, and x+y is 8 contains or does not contain at least one of manganese, cobalt, nickel, and silicon as a metal impurity. The fluorobutene is stored in a container in which the total concentration of manganese, cobalt, nickel, and silicon is 1,000 ppb by mass or less when containing at least one of manganese, cobalt, nickel, and silicon.
1 . A method for storing a fluorobutene represented by general formula C 4 H x F y where x is 0 or more and 7 or less, y is 1 or more and 8 or less, and x+y is 8, wherein
the fluorobutene contains or does not contain at least one of manganese, cobalt, nickel, and silicon as a metal impurity, and the fluorobutene is stored in a container in which a total concentration of manganese, cobalt, nickel, and silicon is 1,000 ppb by mass or less when the fluorobutene contains at least one of manganese, cobalt, nickel, and silicon.
2 . The method for storing a fluorobutene according to claim 1 , wherein the fluorobutene further contains or does not contain at least one of sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium as the metal impurity, and the fluorobutene is stored in a container in which a sum total concentration of manganese, cobalt, nickel, silicon, sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium is 2,000 ppb by mass or less when the fluorobutene further contains at least one of sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium.
3 . The method for storing a fluorobutene according to claim 1 , wherein the fluorobutene is at least one selected from 1,1,1,4,4,4-hexafluoro-2-butene, 1,1,1,2,4,4,4-heptafluoro-2-butene, 3,3,4,4,4-pentafluoro-1-butene, and 2,3,3,4,4,4-hexafluoro-1-butene.
