Method 1601

1,1-Dichloro-1-nitroethane by GC/FID


This method is for the determination of 1,1-dichloro-1-nitroethane. The sample is collected on solid sorbent tubes, desorbed in carbon disulfide, and analyzed by GC/FID. The working range is 1 to 30 ppm (6 - 180 mg/m³) for a 15 L air sample. The method is applicable to ceiling determinations. Note: This is Method S213 in a revised format.
