Analysis of semi-volatile organic compounds using supercritical fluid methodologies

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5313601

This study demonstrates the applicability of supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) and analytical supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) for the analysis of semi-volatile compounds. Mixtures of nitro-polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons that are not ammenable to gas chromatography were separated using SFC with tentative compound identifications made by SFC-MS. Comparisons of analytical SFE of XAD-2 resin and NBS Urban Dust (SRM 1649) to conventional Soxhlet extraction are also discussed.
