content analysis | determined by gas chromatography (GT-10). A thermal conductivity detector is used. The column has a length of 1.5m and an inner diameter of 6.35mm. It is packed with 20% polyethylene glycol 20M(Carbowax 20M) and is carried on a pickled 60/80 mesh diatomite carrier, or other components that can separate diacetyl, water and methyl acetyl alcohol. The following conditions are adopted for determination: sample 2 μg; The injection temperature is about 195 ℃; The column temperature is about 130 ℃ and the detector is about 230 ℃. The flow rate of carrier gas helium is about 35ml per minute. Average retention time: diacetyl is 2min 15S, water is 3min, methyl acetyl alcohol is 12Min. The peak area of the resulting methyl acetyl alcohol shall not be less than 96.0% of the total area of all peaks. |
