27、 EN ISO 18856, Water quality - Determination of selected phthalates using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (ISO 18856) 3 Principle 3.1 General Phthalates in the test extract from paper and board materials are determined by gas chromatography / mass spectrometry. The test extract is prepared from
28、 water, organic solvent and/or MPPO simulant according to respectively: EN 645, EN 647, EN 15519, EN 14338. Other phthalates, as listed in Table 1, may also be analysed by this procedure but it is necessary to determine its applicability in each case. 3.2 Interferences Due to their use as plasticize
29、r agents, phthalates are ubiquitous. Therefore, pay special attention to avoid any contamination. In order to avoid interferences and cross contamination, do not use plastics materials (tubes etc.). Cross contamination is likely to occur with laboratory air. Therefore, remove as far as possible, pla
30、stic materials from the laboratory. Cleaning agents often contain phthalates and may severely contaminate the laboratory air if in use regularly. Therefore, refrain from using these agents during application of this procedure. Phthalates may bleed from the septa of the injector port into the gas chr
31、omatograph, therefore use septa that are not likely to contaminate the system. Fittings of syringes or equipment and septa of the sampling bottles may as well contain phthalates. 4 Materials 4.1 General Common laboratory glassware, rinsed with ethyl acetate before use. After rinsing the glassware wi
32、th solvent, let residual solvent evaporate under a fume hood. In case of contamination, special attention should be paid to the volumetric flasks cleaning. For example the non-volumetric glassware could be cleaned in a furnace at 500C for at least 6 h. Glassware for volumetric purpose can change its
33、 properties due to the heating process and so should not be treated thus. Phthalates are ubiquitous laboratory contaminants. Each lot of reagent used for this method should be checked for phthalates contamination. BS EN 16453:2014EN 16453:2014 (E) 6 4.2 Pasteur pipettes 4.3 Double mark glass pipette
