Abstract |
Acrylonitrile is separated from other organic compounds on a 3mm-by-3m column of Chromaton N-AW with 15% Apiezon L and detected with a flame ionisation detector. Air to be sampled is drawn through a chilled U-tube containing a portion of the chromatographic medium. After a sufficient volume of air has been passed through the tube, the tube is connected to the chromatograph, heated and swept with carrier gas. As little as 0.025mg/m3 acrylonitrile can be detected. Other compounds typically present in workplace air in the plastics industry (styrene, ethyl acrylate, dimethylformamide, chloroprene and carbon tetrachloride) do not interfere in the determination. |
