24、asic conditions. A fixed amount ofthis solution is introduced into the capillary using hydrody-namic sampling or electrokinetic sampling. A voltage is ap-plied to the capillary to separate the impurities, 4-CBA andp-TOL, from PTA. External standard calibration is used forquantification.5. Significan

25、ce and Use5.1 The presence of 4-CBA and p-TOL in PTA used for theproduction of polyester is undesirable because they can slowdown the polymerization process; and 4-CBAis also impartingcoloration to the polymer due to thermal instability.5.2 Determining the amount of 4-CBA and p-TOL remain-ing from t

26、he manufacture of PTA is often required. This testmethod is suitable for setting specifications and for use as aninternal quality control where these products are produced orused.5.3 This test method is intended as an alternative to theHPLC method for the determination of 4-CBA and p-TOL inPTA. The
