“…One problem inherent in very fast response analysis of SO 2 is that sample lines, even when constructed of teflon®, appear to adsorb SO 2 , especially at higher relative humidities, causing an extended response time. 18 Another method available commercially uses gas phase fluorescence of SO 2 excited by pulsed light of wavelength 214 nm." i2° The technique is very sensitive (0.5 ppb detection limit), but the more sensitive instrument is of rather slow response time, with a 90% rise time of 2 min.…”
