Nitropropane. Determination in the workplace air with gas chromatography
Journal Title: Podstawy i Metody Oceny Środowiska Pracy - Year 2013, Vol 29, Issue 2
Abstract
A new procedure has been developed for the assay of 1-nitropropane and 2-nitropropane with gas chromatography with a flame ionization detector. This method is based on the adsorption of nitropropane vapors on Carbosieve S-III, desorption with chloroform and chromatographic analysis of the obtained solution. The working range is 3 to 60 mg/m[sup]3[/sup] for a 12-L air sample and 0.3 to 6 mg/m[sup]3[/sup] for a 120-L air sample. The developed method of determining 1-nitropropane and 2-nitropropane has been recorded as an analytical procedure, which is available in the Appendix.
