Preparation of Apparatus8.1 Column PreparationThe column must be conditionedat the maximum operating temperature to reduce baseline shiftsdue to bleeding of column substrate.NOTE 2The column can be conditioned using the following proce-dure:(a) Disconnect the

28、mbient temperature,(e) Reconnect the column to the detector,(f) Set the detector temperature to at least 5C higher thanthe maximum column temperature, and(g) Program the column temperature up to the maximumseveral times with normal carrier flow until a stable, flatbaseline is obtained.8.2 Column Res

Call the width inseconds of the part of the peak ahead of the time of the apex at5 % of peak height A, and call B to equal the width in secondsof the part of the peak after the

33、time of the apex at 5 % of peakheight. This ratio must not be less than 0.5 nor more than 2.08.4 Typical instrument parameters are as follows:8.4.1 Column length equals 10 to 30 m,8.4.2 Column material and size equal fused silica or glass,0.53 to 0.75 mm inside diameter,8.4.3 Liquid phase equals bon

34、ded methyl silicone or equiva-lent,8.4.4 Column film thickness equals 3 to 5 m,8.4.5 Initial column temperature equals 35C (95F),8.4.6 Initial hold equals 2 min,8.4.7 Program rate equals 10 to 20C (18 to 36F)/min,8.4.8 Final temperature equals 225C (437F) to 280C(536F),8.4.9 Final time equals 2 min,

35、8.4.10 Injector temperature equals cool, on-column,8.4.11 Detector temperature equals 250C (482F),8.4.12 Detector range (HP) equals 6 to 8,8.4.13 Carrier gas flow rate equals 8 to 10 mL/min, and8.4.14 Sample size equals 0.1 to 0.5 L.9. Procedure9.1 CalibrationAfter preparing the apparatus as in Sec-

36、tion 8, inject the calibration mixture into the gas chromato-graph. Record the data in such a manner that the retentiontimes of peak maxima and the peak areas for each componentare obtained.9.1.1 The sample size of the calibration mixture must bechosen as to avoid distortion of the individual compon

37、ent peakshape caused by overloading the sample capacity of thecolumn. Distortion in retention time measurement and henceerrors in boiling point distribution will be likely with columnoverloading. Sample size of 0.1 to 0.5 L have been shown togive good results.9.1.2 This test method requires the use

38、of commerciallyavailable “Simulated Distillation” softwares3to process thechromatographic data in order to obtain good precision ofresults. Calibration of the gas chromatographic method can bedone by inputting the retention times, and the normal boilingpoints of each of the components of the calibra

39、tion mixture.The equation for the temperature versus retention time calibra-tion curve is automatically generated by the software.9.1.3 Insure a rigorous syringe cleaning step betweensamples where multiple volumes of the next sample are flushedthrough the syringe and deposited to waste prior to actu

40、alinjection. If an autosampler or injector is used, the syringeflushing feature has to be programmed so that syringe carry-over is minimized. If injections are made manually, insure thatthe syringe needle is thoroughly wiped clean before injection.9.1.4 A typical calibration curve using a 30-m colum

41、n isshown in Fig. 3.9.1.5 For best precision, make sure that the calibration curveis essentially a linear plot of boiling point versus retentiontime. It is essential that at least one point on the calibrationcurve be at a lower boiling point than the IBP of the sample.Extrapolation of the curve at t

42、he upper end is more accurate,but for best accuracy, make sure that calibration points bracketthe boiling range of the sample at both the low and high ends.9.1.6 The calibration must be checked at least once a daywhen the instrument is in use.9.2 Sample AnalysisUsing identical instrument param-eters

43、 and conditions used in the calibration run, inject thesample into the gas chromatograph. Record the data in such amanner that the retention times and areas of chromatographicpeaks are obtained.9.2.1 The same software used to process the calibration runmust be used to process the sample gas chromato

44、graphic data.The software must be able to process the data and report IBP,and FBP, as well as boiling point data for any percentrecovered (at 1 % interval) between the initial and the finalboiling point.9.2.2 Care must be taken that the sample size chosen doesnot allow some peaks to exceed the linea

45、r range of the detector.Choose the detector range and the sample size such that allpeaks are fully integrated.9.2.3 Baseline stability is generally not a problem for thesetypes of samples. If problems with baseline is encountered,constant attention must be given to all factors that influencebaseline

46、 stability such as column bleed, septum bleed, detectortemperature control, carrier gas flow, leaks, etc. Baselinecorrection is generally not required for these types of samples.3Beckman CALS Simulated Distillation software was used in developing thistest method. There are other Simulated Distillati

Such softwares are marketed by Hewlett Packard, Perkin Elmer-Nelson,Analytical Controls, VG, Separation Systems, and others.FIG. 1 Column ResolutionFIG. 2 Peak SkewnessD5399 0939.2.4 Make periodic blank runs in the normal mannerwithout injection of sample to insu

48、re that the system is freefrom contamination. If the blank run shows sample carryovercontamination, steps must be taken to eliminate the source ofcontamination.10.
