Summary of Test

19、Method4.1 200 mg of the PVC sample are dissolved in 10 mL of THF. 10 L of the THF solution are analyzed usingTDGC/MS.TD-GC/MS. Phthalates are identified by their retention times and their mass spectra. Quantification is based on the areaof a designated quant ion (SIM or full scan)see Table 1. Standa

20、rd addition is the calibration method.NOTE 4Standard addition calibration will negate matrix interference. It also takes into account the overall performance of the instrumentation at thetime the samples are analyzed.5. Significance and Use5.1 Identification and quantificationquantitation of phthala

Regulations include: EUDirective 2005/84/EC, USConsumer Product Safety Improvement Act of2008section 108, JapanHealth, Labor and Welfare Ministry guideline No.336 (2010). This test method provides a procedureto identify an

Interferences6.1 Retention times for GC are dependent on several variables and it is possible to ha

23、ve two or more components with identicalretention times. The analyst shall take the necessary steps to insure that adequate separation of the plasticizer components isachieved and or the ions used to monitor for a target phthalate are free of interference. This includes, but is not limited to changi

24、ngthe selectivity of the chromatographic column. Calibration by standard addition offers the advantage of minimizing interferences.6.2 When using a TDGC/MS method, care must be taken to ensure that the sample cups are inert and clean. Any and allsolvents used to prepare standards and sample solution

25、s must be free of contamination.6.3 The presence or absence of each phthalate is based upon three criteria: (1) the relative retention time of the peak (2) thepresence or absence of the quant ion and the two confirming ions and (3) the ratio of the quant and the confirming ion one mustsatisfy the es

33、ethylene chloride in a wellventilated space.10. Preparation of the Analytical Samples (based upon using a 1 g balance) Weights must be scaled up if using a10-g balance.10.1 Three solutions must be prepared: (1) a stock solution of the target phthalate standards, (2) a solution of the sample and(3) t

34、he sample solution spiked with the standard stock solution.10.2 Solution #1Prepare a stock standard solution of the phthalates by dissolving 0.30 mg of each phthalate in 10 mL ofmethylene chloride (0.30 mg/10 mL). Nhexane has also been used with success. See Fig. 1 for a typical chromatogram.10.3 So

35、lution #2Dissolve 200 mg of the sample in 10 mL THF (200 mg/10 mL). Shake (or sonicate) the solution for fiveminutessee Note 6. The solution may is likely to range from clear to slightly cloudy. Place 10 L of the sample solution in aclean sample cup. Evaporate the solvent; the sample is ready to ana

36、lyze. See Figs. 2 and 3 for example chromatograms.NOTE 6A critical step in the accurate determination of phthalates is sample homogeneity. This is discussed in more detail in Appendix X2.NOTE 7The THF sample solution mayIt is possible that the solution will contain inorganic material. Studies have s

37、hown that the presence of insolubleinorganic material will not affect either the accuracy or precision of the phthalate determination.10.4 Solution #3Place 10 Lof the sample solution (#2) into a clean sample cup.Add 10 Lof the phthalate standard solution(#1). Evaporate the solvent.NOTE 8To expedite

38、the evaporation process, pass a steady stream of a high purity inert gas using clean, (plasticizer- and additive-free) tubing overthe sample cup.11.

The total ion chromatogram of the sample (Solution #2, 10.3) needs to besimilar to that presented in Appendix X1.11.2.1 Confirm the TD zone using Evolved Gas Analysis (EGA)MS. The total ion chromatogram of the sample (Solution #2,10.3) needs to be similar

43、 to that presented in Appendix X1.NOTE 10The use of alternative GC columns or chromatographic conditions normally results in adequate separation of the phthalates. Thosetechniques are allowed as long as the same or a similar separation is achieved.11.3 Analyze the sample (Solution #2, 10.3) using th

44、e conditions outlined in 11.2. Typical chromatograms are shown in Figs.2 and 3. The precision of the TD method is shown in Fig. 3.FIG. 1 Solution #1Phthalates Standard Mixture (see 10.2)D7823 14411.4 Peak identifications are based on relative retention data, full scan extracted ion chromatograms of

45、both the quant andconfirming ions and the ion area ratios as indicated in Table 1. Phthalate quantificationquantitation is based upon the peak areasof the quant ions listed in Table 1. The assumption being made is that the sole source of the quant ion at a predetermined retentiontime is the phthalat

46、e and therefore phthalate. Use the peak area of the quant ion can be used to accurately determine the amountof the phthalate.11.5 If using selected ion monitoring (SIM), peak identification is based solely on the presence or absence of the quant ion andthe two confirming ions at a predetermined rete

47、ntion time. QuantificationQuantitation is based on the area of the quant ion.11.6 When DINP and DIDP are copresent both present in a sample or standard, use m/z 127 should be used as a qualifyingion for DINP and m/z 289 for DIDP. This is because DINP and DIDP partialpartially coelute and both produc

49、nt 149/167 ratios, potentially leading to a false negative.NOTE 9A typical total ion chromatogram obtained using the conditions specified in 11.2 is shown in Fig. 1. Because the absolute retention times aredependent upon the entirety of the GC system; relative retention times can be used to identify each phthalate. The choice of the base phthalate is left tothe laboratory.11.7 QuantificationQuantitation is done using standard addition. Analyze Sol
