Description

The three methods for the mass spectrometric determination of volatile chlorocarbons were developed. In the discharge-CIMS method, atmosphere sample was directly introduced into the ion source through a short capillary tube (0.25 mm i. d.×1 m). And (M-Cl)+ for 1, 1, 1-trichloroethane, M+ for trichloroethylene and M- for tetrachloroethylene, which formed by ionization reactions such as charge exchange or nondissociative electron resonance capture with air as the reagent gas, were monitored. In the GC/NCIMS methods wihout or with preconcentration using the collection tube packed with Tenax GC and active carbon, chloride ion Cl- produced by dissociative electron resonance capture were detected by selected ion monitoring for detecting chloroform and carbon tetrachloride as well as the above 3 cornpounds. The detection limits were 0.5-1 ppb by discharge-CIMS and 0.01-0.1 ppb by GC/NCIMS with a precision of RSD 3-6%. Chlorocarbons in the atomospheric and the indoor air in many places were determined by the proposed methods.
