Abstract
5 cm Γ 0.3 mm i.d. glass capillary tubes coated with fine charcoal particles are used for the analysis of organic compounds, particularly triβ and tetrachloroethylene, benzene, and toluene, in air and headspace samples. Due to their small size, these traps are easy to use with capillary GC. As, e.g. 20 ml of gas can be sucked through this trap in 20 s, it is a simple technique providing high sensitivity; compared to headspace with split injection, sensitivity is increased by a factor exceeding 100. The column effluent is split into FID and ECD in such a way that small as well as large amounts of the chlorinated compounds can be detected.

An analytical system for the analysis of volatiles entrained in polymers is described. This system is based on a thermal desorption oven connected to a cold trap. After enrichment of headspace vapor, trapped material is reinjected and analyzed by open tubular gas chromatography/Fourier transform inf
