Amethod for the Determination of Trace Amounts of Ethyl Acetate by Gas Chromatography
Objective:To establish an analytical method for the determination of trace amounts of ethyl acetate by direct injection gas chromatography.Methods:The optimal analytical conditions were determined by optimizing the instrument parameters,including inlet temperature,initial column temperature,column flow rate,and split ratio:column SH-PolarWax(30 m×0.32 mm 0.25 μm),programmed ramp-up:initial temperature of 45℃,hold for 4min,ramp-up to 90℃at 10℃/min,then ramp-up to 200℃at 20℃/min;inlet temperature of 220℃,flow rate of 1.00 mL/min,shunt ratio of 10∶1.Results:Under the optimized chromatographic conditions,the test method for the determination of trace amounts of ethyl acetate showed good linearity in the range of 0.01~1.00 μg/mL with correlation coefficients(r)greater than 0.999,recoveries in the range of 90%~110%,RSDs(n=3)all less than 5%,detection limits of 0.004 μg/mL and quantification limits of 0.012 μg/mL.Conclusions:The method has the characteristics of short detection time and high sensitivity,and the research results can provide data support and reference for the research of ethyl acetate content detection method.
