Abstract:Polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) belong to persistent organic pollutants, so it was of great significance to determine and control the contents of PBBs and PBDEs in polymer materials of electronic and electrical products. In traditional methods, the sample should be pretreated before determination, which was cumbersome or relatively large amount of samples were required. After the target compounds were desorbed from the sample by thermal desorption and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), the determination of PBBs and PBDEs in polymer materials of electronic and electrical products by GC-MS with direct solid injection was realized with only mg-level amount of sample required. The thermal desorption conditions such as thermal desorption temperatures, thermal desorption time and heating rate were optimized. The results showed that the linear range was 100-2000mg/kg with correlation coefficient higher than 0.996 under the optimized experimental conditions. The limits of detection were between 5.4mg/kg and 24.8mg/kg, and the limits of quantification were between 18.0mg/kg and 82.6mg/kg. The contents of PBBs and PBDEs in certified reference material of polypropylene (ERM-EC591) were determined for parallel 7 times according to the experimental method. The determination results were basically consistent with the certified values for PBBs and PBDEs when their contents were higher than the limits of quantification. The relative standard deviation (RSD, n=7) was less than 15%. Qualitative and quantitative analysis of PBBs and PBDEs in 20 batches of polymer materials of electronic and electrical products were carried out with the experimental method. The determination results were compared with those obtained by GC-MS with soxhlet extraction in appendix A of standard method of GB/T 26125-2011. The results showed that the contents of all PBBs and partial PBDEs in polymer materials of electronic and electrical products were below the limits of quantification. The relative errors of determination results of other PBDEs with those obtained by standard method were between 3.7% and 15.7%.
