4、ssment.1.2 A complete listing of VOCs for which this practice hasbeen tested, at least over part of the measurement range (1.6),is shown in Tables 1-9. For other compounds this practice shallbe tested according to EN 1076 (pumped); Practice D 6246,ISO 16107, ANSI/ISEA 104, EN 838 or EN 13528-1/EN 13
5、528-2 (diffusive); or other appropriate validation proto-cols (Sections 13 and 14). (5,1)1.3 This practice is based on the sorption of VOCs from aironto selected sorbents or combinations of sorbents. Sampledair is either drawn through a tube containing one or a series ofsorbents (pumped sampling) or
6、 allowed to diffuse, undercontrolled conditions, onto the sorbent tube or tubes (diffusiveor passive sampling). The sorbed VOCs are subsequentlyrecovered by thermal desorption and analyzed by capillary gaschromatography.1.4 This practice applies to three basic types of samplersthat are compatible wi
7、th thermal desorption: (1) pumpedsorbent tubes containing one or more sorbents; (2) axialdiffusive samplers (typically of the same physical dimensionsas standard pumped sorbent tubes and containing only onesorbent); and (3) radial diffusive samplers.1.5 This practice recommends a number of sorbents
8、that canbe packed in sorbent tubes, for use in the sampling of a widerange of different volatile organic compounds boiling in therange 0 to 400C (v.p. 15 to 0.01 kPa at 25C).1.5.1 For pumped sampling, sorbent selection is based onbreakthrough capacity. Single-bed tubes containing for ex-ample sorben
9、t Type A3,4are appropriate for normal alkanesfrom n-C6(hexane) to n-C10(decane) and substances withsimilar volatility (v.p. 15 to 0.3 kPa at 25C). More volatilematerials should be sampled on stronger sorbents, such assorbent Type B3,5. Other sorbent types than those specified maybe used, if their br
10、eakthrough capacities are adequate and theirthermal desorption blanks are sufficiently small. Examples aregiven in Appendix X2. A broader range of VOCs may besampled using multi-bed tubes.1.5.2 Guidance given for the selection of sorbents forpumped monitoring tubes can be applied equally well to axi
11、aldiffusive sampling tubes. The restriction to a single samplingsurface (hence single sorbent), limits the target analyte rangethat can be monitored by a single tube. However, the unobtru-sive nature and low cost of diffusive samplers usually meansthat two or more samplers containing different sorbe
12、nts can beused in parallel without impacting study objectives.1.5.3 The high sampling rate and associated risk of backdiffusion associated with radial diffusive samplers typicallyrestricts the use of these samplers to compounds of equal orlower volatility than benzene. It also means that strongersor
13、bents are generally required for these samplers whencompared with either axial diffusive or pumped sorbent tubes.1.6 This practice can be used for the measurement ofairborne vapors of these volatile organic compounds over awide concentration range.1.6.1 With pumped sampling, this practice can be use
