Halocarbon gases

Agilent 7890B Gas Chromatograph - Mass Spectrometer 5977A

Halocarbon gases concentrations

Methodology

Volatile halocarbons, such as methyl iodide (CH3I), are purged and trapped on an IMT VSP4000 system, then the isolated compounds are carried to a gas chromatograph (GC) equipped with a micro electron capture detector (ECD) and a mass spectrometer. This instrument measures聽methyl idodie (CH3I), chloriodomethan (CH2ClI), diiodomethan (CH2I2), dibrommethan (CH2Br2) and bromoform (CHBr3).
