Analysis of PCDDs and PCDFs in virgin suspension PVC resin

Samples of virgin suspension PVc resin from eleven major production sites in Europe have been analysed by HRGC/HRMS for PCDDs and PCDFs using a dissolution method. The method has been validated in two laboratories, down to levels of detection of less than Ippt. The results show that there are no PCD...

Description
Summary:Samples of virgin suspension PVc resin from eleven major production sites in Europe have been analysed by HRGC/HRMS for PCDDs and PCDFs using a dissolution method. The method has been validated in two laboratories, down to levels of detection of less than Ippt. The results show that there are no PCDDs and PCDFs in virgin PVC resin above the levels of quantitiation.
