Summary of Test Method4.1 AMS (alpha-methylstyrene) is analyzed by a gas chro-matograph (GC) equipped with a flame ionization detector(FID). A precisely repeatable volume of the sample to beanalyzed is injected onto

11、the gas chromatograph. The peakareas of the impurities are measured and converted to concen-trations via an external standard methodology. Purity by GC(the AMS content) is calculated by subtracting the sum of theimpurities from 100.00. Results are reported in weight percent.5. Significance and Use5.

12、1 This test method is suitable for setting specifications onthe materials referenced in 1.2 and for use as an internal qualitycontrol tool where AMS is produced or is used in a manufac-turing process. It may also be used in development or researchwork involving AMS.1This test method is under the jur

16、his test method is useful in determining the purity ofAMS with normal impurities present. If extremely high boilingor unusual impurities are present in the AMS, this test methodwould not necessarily detect them and the purity calculationwould be erroneous.6. Apparatus6.1 Gas ChromatographAny instrum

17、ent having a flameionization detector that can be operated at the conditions givenin Table 2. The system should have sufficient sensitivity toobtain a minimum peak height response for 10 mg/kg ac-etophenone of twice the height of the signal background noise.6.2 ColumnsThe choice of column is based o

18、n resolutionrequirements. Any column may be used that is capable ofresolving all significant impurities from AMS. The columndescribed in Table 2 has been used successfully. Unless theanalyst can be sure of peak identity, for example by gaschromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), the use of thecolum

19、n in Table 2 is strongly recommended.6.3 RecorderElectronic integration is recommended.6.4 InjectorThe specimen must be precisely and repeat-ably injected into the gas chromatograph. An automatic sampleinjection device is highly recommended. Manual injection canbe employed if the precision stated in

Because the avail-ability of stock AMS with a purity higher than 99.80 % isproblematic, the method of standard additions may be required

32、for impurities such as tert-butylbenzene and n-proplybenzene,as well as for a number of the other impurities listed in 1.2 thatare commonly present. In addition, nearly all commerciallyavailable AMS is stabilized with 10 to 30 mg/kg of para-tertiary-butylcatechol, requiring a standard addition metho
