[Extraction of residual formaldehyde in polymer complex and high performance liquid chromatographic analysis].
This paper presents a simple and accurate method for analyzing formaldehyde in polymer complex by headspace extraction derivatization and HPLC analysis. The sample preparatio of formaldehyde in polymer complex was based on a simple thermodynamic equilibrium in a closed and thermostat jar, and the gaseous formaldehyde in equilibrium could be absorbed and extracted by the liquid in the bottom of the jar. The formaldehyde was derivatized with 2,4-dinitrophenyl hydrazine before chromatography. The influences of temperature, equilibrium time, sample quantity and geometric form on the extraction efficiency were studied. The extraction and HPLC conditions were optimized. The limit of detection (LOD) was 0.1 mg/kg, and the relative standard deviation (RSD) was below 5%, and the recoveries were between 96%-103%. As a result, this method would meet the demands for analyzing microamounts of residual formaldehyde in polymer complex.
