Laboratory analysis of Benzene
Your needs : to analyze benzene in your polymer matrices
Benzene is an organic compound which at room temperature is a stable, volatile, colorless liquid. Benzene is essential because it is used as an intermediate in the synthesis of many other chemical compounds such as :
– Ethylbenzene, a precursor of styrene, used for the manufacture of polymers
– Phenol, which is used to make resins and adhesives
– Cyclohexane, which is found in nylon
Benzene is also used in the manufacture of tires, polymers and rubber, solvents, glues, inks, plasticizers, detergents, perfumes, azo dyes, food additives, drugs, detergents, solvents, lubricants, pesticides, explosives, etc…
Our solution : to analyze benzene by GC-MS
Equipped with modern and varied analytical equipment, FILAB laboratory is able to offer you tailored support in monitoring and analyzing benzene:
– Determination of solvents
– Analysis of polluted soils and waters to test for the presence of benzene
– Setting up of periodic inspections.
– Development and validation of analytical methods
Although benzene analysis can vary depending on the properties of the sample, the most commonly used techniques are :
– Gas chromatography paired with a mass spectrometer (GCMS)
– Head Space analysis, which uses heat to bring the volatile molecules into their gaseous phase
As an independent laboratory with a team made up of experienced doctors and engineers, FILAB is able to guarantee the reliability of your test results, ensure quick turnaround of requests and provide tailored support.
