Summary of Test Method3.1 An internal standard, methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), isadded to the sample which is then introduced int

8、o a gaschromatograph equipped with two columns connected inseries. The sample passes first through a column packed with anonpolar phase such as dimethylpolysiloxane (8.1.1) whichseparates the components according to boiling point. Afteroctane has eluted, the flow through the nonpolar column isrevers

9、ed, flushing out the components heavier than octane. Theoctane and lighter components then pass through a columnpacked with a highly polar phase such as 1, 2, 3-tris(2-cyanoethoxy) propane (8.1.2) which separates the aromatic andnonaromatic compounds. The eluted components are detectedby a thermal c

10、onductivity detector. The detector response isrecorded, the peak areas are measured, and the concentration ofeach component is calculated with reference to the internalstandard.4. Significance and Use4.1 Benzene is classed as a toxic material. A knowledge ofthe concentration of this compound can be

41、1):10.3.1.1 Open Tap A and B and close C; set the primarypressure regulator to give the desired flow (Table 1) throughthe column system (at an approximate gage pressure of205 kPa (30 psi). Measure the flow rate at the detector vent,sample side. Observe the pressure on gage GC.10.3.1.2 Close Tap A an

If theflow has changed, adjust flow control B to obtain the correctflow. (Flows should match to within 61cm3/mi

46、n).10.3.2.3 Change the valve from forward flow to the back-flush position several times and observe the baseline. Thereshould be no baseline shift or drift after the initial valve kickthat results from the pressure surge. If there is a baseline shift,increase or decrease flow control B slightly to b

47、alance thebaseline. (A persistent drift could indicate leaks somewhere inthe system.)10.4 Determine Time to BackflushThe time to backflushwill vary for each column system and must be determinedexperimentally as follows. Prepare a mixture of 5 volume %isooctane in n-nonane. Using the injection techni

48、que describedin 11.4 and with the preferred system (10.3)intheforward flowmode, inject 1 L of the isooctane n-nonane mixture. Allowthe chromatogram to run until the n-nonane has eluted and thedetector signal has returned to baseline. Measure the time inseconds, from the injection until the detector

49、signal returns tobaseline between the isooctane and n-nonane peaks. At thispoint all of the isooctane, but essentially none of the n-nonane,should have eluted. One half of the time determined shouldapproximate the “time to backflush” and should be from 30 sto 60 s. Repeat the run, including the injection, but switchingthe system to the backflush mode at the predetermined “time tobackflush.” This should result in a chromatogram of isooctanewith little or no n-nonane visible.
