Applicability of glass fiber as a support material for generation of gaseous standard mixtures using thermal decomposition of the surface compound.
Calibration of analytical equipmentThe use of glass fiber as a support material for a surface compound serving to generate gaseous standard mixtures of ethene is described. The technique is based on the process of thermal decomposition of the surface compound in a desorber connected on-line via a multi-port valve to the calibrated device. The surface compound undergoes thermal decomposition at 2458C, yielding known amounts of ethene. The method enables on-line preparation of a standard mixture immediately before the calibration step. Consequently, it can be also applied for the generation of standard mixtures containing volatile, malodorous, unstable, and toxic compounds.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
