Hazards8.1 This test involves hazardous materials, operations, andequipment. This procedure does not attempt to address thesafety problems a

40、ssociated with this test. A hazards reviewshall be conducted by all personnel performing the test. It is theresponsibility of the user to review all material safety datasheets (MSDS), manuals, and hazards procedures and establishthe appropriate safety measures. Some PAH compounds havebeen shown to p

41、ossess mutagenic as well as carcinogenic andteratogenic properties.As such, concentrated extracts of carbonblacks containing PAHs also may possess the same harmfulproperties. Solvents used are flammable. Appropriate personalprotection equipment (PPE) shall be used.9. Preparation of Standard Solution

42、s9.1 The GC/MS instrument is calibrated using five solutionsof the PAH mixture in which internal standards (IS) have alsobeen added. The recommended external standard concentra-tions are to cover a range of 0.0125 to 1.0 g/cm3. Otherconcentrations may be used as needed for the application. TheIS con

43、centration is kept constant within the calibration range.Preferably the IS concentration is in the middle of the selectedcalibration range (for example, 0.3 to 0.6 g/cm3). A lowerPAH concentration range can be used for high-purity carbonblacks. However, the IS concentration should maintain an S/Nrat

44、io of at least 15/1 for routine instrument performance.Subsections 9.2 9.4 describe the preparation of the varioussolutions required.9.2 Preparation of PAH Standard Solutions forCalibrationUsing the native PAH standard stock solutiondescribed in 7.2, prepare at least 10 cm3of five toluenesolutions a

45、t the concentrations suggested in the following list.Other concentrations may be used but the difference betweenany two concentration levels shall not exceed a factor of four.Before diluting to the final solution volume, spike eachstandard with the appropriate volume (for example, 100 L ISsolution d

46、escribed in 9.3 into 10 cm3volumetric flask to givea final IS concentration of 0.500 g/cm3). Other aliquotvolumes and final volumes may be used to obtain the desiredconcentrations. Cap the standard solutions securely, mix thor-oughly and label. Store all standard solutions in the dark.Native PAH Sta

48、dding to samples and calibrationstandards. A concentration of 50 g/cm3is suggested for thissolution but other concentrations can be used. For example,when adding 100 L of a 50 g/cm3IS solution to a 10 cm3final extract volume, the IS concentration will be 0.500 g/cm3.9.4 All standard solutions shall

49、be stored in a refrigerator(6C) when not in use. Care has to be taken not to exceedtheir shelf life. If any indication of degradation is perceived,then new standards have to be prepared.10. Carbon Black Sample Preparation and Extraction10.1 All glassware coming into contact with the sampleshall be free of PAH on the basis of the limits of quantification.It is recommended to use separate glassware and extractionunits for high-purity carbon blacks and carbon blacks in whichhigher PAH levels are expected.
