Method 1019

1,1,2,2-Tetrachloroethane by GC/FID


This method is for the determination of 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane by GC/FID. The working range is 1.5 to 15 ppm (10 to 100 mg/m³) for a 10 L air sample. After collection, the sample is desorbed with carbon disulfide, followed by GC/FID analysis. Capillary columns may be substituted for packed columns. Note: This method revises Method S124.
