1、Designation: D 5836 03Standard Test Method forDetermination of 2,4-Toluene Diisocyanate (2,4-TDI) and 2,6-Toluene Diisocyanate (2,6-TDI) in Workplace Atmospheres(1-2 PP Method)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 5836; the number immediately following the designation indicates the

2、year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method describes the determination of 2,4

3、-toluene diisocyanate (2,4-TDI) and 2,6-toluene diisocyanate(2,6-TDI) in air samples collected from workplace atmo-spheres in a cassette containing a glass-fiber filter impregnatedwith 1-(2-pyridyl)piperazine (1-2 PP). This procedure is veryeffective for determining the vapor content of atmospheres.

4、Atmospheres containing aerosols may produce low results.1.2 This test method uses a high-performance liquid chro-matograph (HPLC) equipped with a fluorescence or an ultra-violet (UV) detector (1-4).2,31.3 The validated range of the test method, as written, isfrom 1.4 to 5.6 g of 2,4-TDI and 2,6-TDI

5、which is equivalentto approximately 9.8 to 39 ppb for 2,4-TDI and 2,6-TDI basedon a 20-L air sample. The HPLC method using an UV detectoris capable of detecting 0.078 g of 2,4-TDI and 0.068 g of2,6-TDI in a 4.0-mL solvent volume, which is equivalent to0.55 ppb for 2,4-TDI and 0.48 ppb for 2,6-TDI ba

6、sed on a 20-Lair sample.1.4 The isomers of 2,4-TDI, and 2,6-TDI, can be separatedutilizing a reversed phase column for the HPLC method.Because industrial applications employ an isomeric mixture of2,4- and 2,6-TDI, the ability to achieve this separation isimportant.1.5 This standard does not purport

7、to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.

15、k area integra-tions or peak heights) to a standard calibration curve for theurea derivative.4.4 The amount of diisocyanate is calculated from theamount of urea determined in the analysis.5. Significance and Use5.1 Diisocyanates are used in the production of polyure-thane foams, plastics, elastomers

16、, surface coatings, and adhe-sives (5,6). It has been estimated that the production of TDIwill steadily increase during the future years.5.2 Diisocyanates are irritants to eyes, skin, and mucousmembrane and are respiratory sensitizers. Chronic exposure tolow concentrations of diisocyanates produces

17、an allergic sen-sitization which may progress into asthmatic bronchitis (7,8).5.3 The Occupational Safety and Health Administration(OSHA) has a permissible exposure limit for 2,4-TDI of 0.02ppm or 0.14 mg/m3as a ceiling limit (9). The AmericanConference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH)h

18、as a Threshold Limit Value (TLV) of 0.005 ppm or 0.036mg/m3and a short-term exposure limit (STEL) of 0.02 ppm or0.14 mg/m3(10). No exposure limits have been established for2,6-TDI.5.4 This proposed test method has been found satisfactoryfor measuring 2,4 and 2,6-TDI levels in the workplace.6. Interf

19、erences6.1 Any compound having the same retention time as thestandards is a possible interference. Generally, chromato-graphic conditions can be altered to resolve an interference.6.2 Compounds that can react with an isocyanate representa potential interference. These would include molecules con-tai

20、ning the functional groups: amines, alcohols, anhydrides,phenols, and carboxylic acids.6.3 Strong oxidizing agents can potentially react with the1-(2-pyridyl)piperazine.6.4 Retention time data on a single column is not definitiveproof of chemical identity. Analysis by an alternate columnsystem, rati

21、oing of wavelength response using two wave-lengths or types of detector, should be performed to confirmchemical identity.7.

37、s necessary.10. Sampling10.1 Refer to Practices D 1357 and D 3686 for generalinformation on sampling.10.2 Equip the worker, whose exposure is to be evaluated,with a filter holder connected to a belt-supported samplingpump. Collect personal samples by pointing the samplerdownward in the breathing zon

38、e of the worker and remove thetop for open-face sampling. Draw air through the filter at acalibrated rate of approximately 1.0 L/min and collect amaximum air sample of 15 L. Use a tripod or other support tolocate the sampler in the general room area for stationarymonitoring.10.3 Treat field blanks i

39、n the same manner as samples. Openthem in the environment to be sampled and immediately closeand place with the samples to be sent to the laboratory foranalysis. Provide an unopened, unused cassette assembly as alaboratory blank. Submit at least one laboratory blank and onefield blank with each set

40、of samples.11. Preparation of Apparatus11.1 Glass-Fiber FilterPrepare a fresh solution of 2mg/mL of 1-(2-pyridyl)piperazine (8.11) in methylene chlorideevery time a batch of filters is to be coated. In an exhaust hood,set several glass-fiber filters on an appropriate holder, one thatwill support and

41、 not contaminate the filters. Using a pipet thatwill deliver 0.5 mL, place 0.5 mL in the center of each filter.The liquid will just wet the filter; allow the filters to air-dry inthe hood for several minutes. Place the filters in a jar that islarge enough for the filters to lie flat. Place the jar i

42、n anunheated vacuum oven for 1 h (about 20-in. Hg vacuum) toremove residual methylene chloride. Install the top on the jarand store in a refrigerator until ready for use. Coated filtersmay be stored for up to six months if they are stored in smallsealed jars in a refrigerator (4C).11.2 CassetteAssem

43、ble the three-piece cassette, insertingthe cellulose backup pad into the bottom, adding an impreg-nated filter, and installing the ring and top. Seal the assemblyagainst air leakage by a wrap of masking tape or celluloseshrink bands, covering the crevice between the ring andbottom. Close the inlet a

44、nd outlet openings of the cassette withplastic plugs.12. Calibration and Standardization12.1 Sample Pump CalibrationCalibrate the personalsampling pumps in accordance with Practice D 3686, at therecommended flow rate with an assembled cassette betweenthe pump and the flow-measuring device. Calibrate

45、 the pumpbefore and after the sampling. If the postcalibration flow ratevaries more than 610 % from the precalibration flow rate,invalidate the sample.12.2 Standardization:12.2.1 Prepare a stock standard solution as micrograms ofTDIP per millilitre of dimethyl sulfoxide. Express the TDIP asthe free

46、TDI. Multiply the amount of TDIP by the correctionfactor derived from the ratios of the respective molecularweights of the TDI and TDIP. The factor is 0.3479 for TDI.12.2.2 Prepare working standards by diluting the stockstandard with acetonitrile.12.2.3 Prepare dilution standards at the necessary co

47、ncen-trations by diluting working standards with acetonitrile togenerate a full calibration curve that brackets the sampleconcentrations.12.2.4 Analyze by high-performance liquid chromatogra-phy using a suitable column and the mobile phase as describedin 8.10. The typical operating conditions are as

48、 follows:Column temperature 25CFlow rate 1.0 mL/minUltraviolet 254 nmFluorescence 240 nm, excitation370 nm or none, emissioncutoff filterInjection size 525 LAnalytical conditions serve as a guideline and may need tobe modified depending upon the specific samples, columncondition, detector, and other

49、 parameters.12.2.5 Analyze each diisocyanate standard solution in du-plicate and utilize peak area integration if possible. Peak areasshould agree within 65 % per standard solution.12.2.6 Prepare a calibration curve by plotting microgramsper millilitre of diisocyanate versus peak area or peak heightvalues.12.2.7 Periodically prepare quality control samples by spik-ing the underivatized TDI onto impregnated glass-fiber filtersto verify the correctness of the calibration curve.131-(2-Pyridyl)piperazine supplied by Aldrich Chemical, Milwaukee, WI,
