Detection of residual ethylene oxide by gas chromatography

1. Experimental equipment:Ethylene oxide residue tester (gas chromatography method)gas chromatograph

2. Testing principle: At a certain temperature, extract the ethylene oxide (EO) contained in the sample with an extractant water, and determine the content of EO using headspace gas chromatography.

3. Standard storage solution preparation method (weighing method):

Take an externally dried 50ml volumetric flask, add about 30ml of water, add a stopper, weigh to the nearest 0.1mg. Inject about 0.6ml of ethylene oxide into the flask without a stopper, gently shake well, cover the flask with a stopper, weigh, and the difference between the two weighings is the weight of ethylene oxide contained in the solution. Add water to the mark and dilute the solution to 1 × 10-2g/L as the standard stock solution.

4. Testing method:

4.1 Take an appropriate amount of ethylene oxide standard solution and prepare six concentration standard solutions. Take 10ml each and prepare six concentration standard samples.

When the standard sample reaches gas-liquid equilibrium, different concentrations of liquid correspond to different concentrations of gas. Take the equilibrium gas, inject it into the sampler, and record the peak height (or area) of ethylene oxide.

4.3 Based on the peak height (or area) corresponding to different concentrations of standard solutions, plot the peak height (or area) - concentration of 1.5 and calculate the residual amount of ethylene oxide according to the formula.
