title: Potential of CE for the determination of inorganic and acidic anions in cyanoacrylate adhesives.
abstract: In this work, a CZE method with indirect UV detection was developed for the simultaneous determination of the inorganic and acidic anions, chloride, sulfate, nitrate, fluoride, formate, phosphate, diethylphosphate, methyl sulfonate, cyanoacetate, and methacrylate present in cyanoacrylate adhesives. Chromate was employed as the probe ion, and the EOF was reversed by incorporating CTAB into BGE. Detection limits of 0.7-4.6 microg/mL were obtained for all the anions studied. The CE method developed is a significant improvement on traditionally used chromatographic methods such as ion chromatography, as it resulted in shorter analysis times with enhanced separation efficiencies. This method was successfully employed for the analysis of inorganic and acidic anions in cyanoacrylate adhesive samples.
