PD ISO/TS 17796:2013

This standard PD ISO/TS 17796:2013 Rubber. Trapping and identification of volatile components of rubber fumes with active sampling on a poly(2,6-diphenylphenylene oxide) type sorbent, using thermodesorption and gas chromatographic method with mass spectrometric detection is classified in these ICS categories:

• 83.060 Rubber

This Technical Specification specifies a qualitative method of thermodesorption – gas chromatography – mass spectrometry (TD-GC-MS) for the identification of volatile components in rubber fumes, after trapping on a solid sorbent based on 2,6-diphenylphenylene-oxide polymer resin. It is applicable to a screening of emissions from the processing of rubber compounds in the ambient workplace and storage environment.

CAUTION Persons using this Technical Specification should be familiar with the procedures for gas chromatography – mass spectrometry measurement and analysis. All the operative details for the application and set-up of the GC-MS are assumed to be in agreement with the operative instructions provided by the manufacturer. Therefore, the detailed procedure for the operation is not included in this Technical Specification. This Technical Specification specifies a qualitative method which is not aimed at quantitative analyses.
