Halogen Content Screening by Combustion Ion Chromatography
topic
Combustion ion chromatography combusts textile specimens at 1000 degrees Celsius in an oxygen-hydrogen stream, absorbing halogen combustion gases in alkaline solution and quantifying chlorine, bromine, and fluorine by ion chromatography; the method provides a rapid total organically bound halogen screen identifying specimens requiring detailed compound-specific follow-up analysis.
Role
Enables cost-effective high-throughput screening of textile specimens for total halogenated compound content as a first-pass compliance filter, efficiently directing detailed GC-MS confirmation testing resources toward specimens where elevated total halogen content indicates probable presence of restricted halogenated flame retardants, pesticides, or solvents.
