Terminology3.1 NP represents nonylphenol which is mixed isomers ofbranched p-nonylphenol. Commercial nonylphenol (NP) isproduced by the reaction of phenol with commercial nonene

9、.Commercial nonene is not simply a linear C9H18alpha olefin;it is a complex mixture of predominantly nine-carbon olefins,called propylene trimer, containing no linear isomers. Thissynthesis results in a mixture of various branched nonylphenolisomers rather than a discrete chemical structure. The bra

10、nchednonyl group is positioned predominantly in the para positionon the phenol ring.3.2 OP represents octylphenol. Commercial octylphenol isproduced by the reaction of phenol and diisobutylene toproduce predominantly the 4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenolisomer.3.3 BPArepresents bisphenolA. Commerci

11、al bisphenolAisproduced by the condensation reaction of phenol and acetoneto produce predominantly the 4,48-isopropylidenediphenol iso-mer.3.4 NP1EO represents branched nonylphenol monoethoxy-late.3.5 NP2EO represents branched nonylphenol diethoxylate.3.6 n-NP and n-NP1EO represent normal straight c

12、hainnonylphenol and nonylphenol ethoxylate. n-NP and n-NP1EOare used in this method as surrogates. They are not producedcommercially and are not expected to be found in environmen-tal waters.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D19 on Waterand is the direct responsibility of

Summary of Test Method4.1 For NP, NP1EO, NP2EO, BPA, and OP analysis, con-tinuous liquid-liquid extraction technique is used for watersamples.4.2 Continuous Liquid

16、-Liquid Extraction TechniqueA1-Lvolume of sample adjusted to pH 2 is extracted with methylenechloride. The methylene chloride extract is dried using sodiumsulfate if needed, concentrated to a volume of 0.5 mL, and thenanalyzed by GC/MS operated in the selected ion monitoring(SIM) or full scan mode.4

17、.3 The target compounds are identified by retention timeand confirmed by comparing the sample mass spectrum to thatof a known standard. The target compounds are quantitatedusing the quantitation ions of the target compounds utilizingthe internal standards acenaphthene-d10, and phenanthrene-d10.The f

18、inal report issued for each sample lists total concentrationof NP, NP1EO, NP2EO, BPA, and OP, if detected, or MDLs, ifnot detected, in g/L for water samples.5. Significance and Use5.1 Nonylphenol, octylphenol, and bisphenol A have beenshown to have toxic effects in aquatic organisms. The source ofno

19、nylphenol and octylphenol is prominently from the use ofcommon commercial surfactants. The most widely used sur-factant is NPEO which has an average ethoxylate chain of 9mol of ethoxylate. The ethoxylate chain is readily biodegradedto form NP1EO and NP2EO, nonylphenol carboxylate (NPEC)and, under an

20、aerobic conditions, nonylphenol. Nonylphenolwill also biodegrade, but may be released into environmentalwaters directly at trace levels. This method has been investi-gated for use with surface water and waste treatment effluentsamples and is applicable to these matrices. It has not beeninvestigated

21、for use with salt water or solid sample matrices.6. Interferences6.1 Method interferences may be caused by contaminants insolvents, reagents, glassware and other apparatus that lead todiscrete artifacts or elevated baseline in the selected ion currentprofiles.All of these materials are routinely dem

22、onstrated to befree from interferences by analyzing laboratory reagent blanksunder the same conditions as the samples.6.2 All glassware is scrupulously cleaned. All glassware iswashed in hot water with detergent such as powderedAlconox,Deto-Jet, Luminox, or Citrojet, rinsed in hot water and rinsedwi

23、th distilled water. The glassware is then dried and heated inan oven at 250C for 15 to 30 min. All glassware is subse-quently cleaned with acetone and methylene chloride. Deter-gents containing alkylphenolic compounds must not be used.6.3 All reagents and solvents should be of pesticide residuepurit

24、y or higher to minimize interference problems.6.4 Matrix interferences may be caused by contaminantsthat are co-extracted from the sample. The extent of matrixinterferences will vary considerably from sample source tosample source, depending on variations of the sample matrix.7. Apparatus7.1 GC/MS S
