Summary of T
15、est Method4.1 A PVC sample is extracted in accordance with Test Method D2124 and the extract residue is re-dissolved in a solvent. Theresulting solution is then analyzed by GC to determine the identity of each plasticizer component. The plasticizer components areidentified by retention time, or chro
16、matographic fingerprint, or both.5. Significance and Use5.1 Separation and identification of plasticizer components in PVC is necessary to correlate performance properties withpolymer composition. This test method provides a means of determining monomeric plasticizers including adipates, azelates,be
17、nzoates, citrates, phthalates, sebacates, and trimellitates.5.2 Other methods successfully used to analyze plasticizers are column chromatography, HPLC, GPC, FTIR, and GC/MS.5.3 This method is not applicable to plasticizers with molecular weights over 700 g/mol including epoxidized soybean oil andpo
18、lymeric plasticizers.6. Interferences6.1 Retention times for GC are dependent on several variables and it is quite possible to have two or more components withidentical retention times. The GC operator shouldshall take the necessary steps to insure that adequate separation of the plasticizercomponen
19、ts is achieved.6.2 A source of interference can be from solvent impurities. Run a solvent blank prior to analysis of an extract.7.
