1,3-dichlorobenzene is a chlorinated liquid used as a fumigant and insecticide. It is most often measured using GC/ECD, ELCD and GC/MS methods.
1,3-dichlorobenzene: CAS No. 541-73-1, C6H4Cl2, molecular weight 147.00, boiling point 173°C, density 1.29gm/mL, vapor pressure 2.15mm Hg at 25°C, flash point 67°C, autoignition temperature 640°C, slightly water soluble is a colorless liquid used as a fumigant and insecticide. It is most frequently measured in water and soil to comply with environmental regulations. Due to its volatility, it is most often measured using GC/ECD, ELCD and GC/MS methods specified by regulatory agencies like the U.S. EPA.
Sixty regulated VOCs are determined in water by purge and trap GC with PID/ELCD detection.
Separation of Para- and Meta-Xylene on Capillary GC ColumnPara- and meta-xylene were more completely resolved on a Carbowax capillary column than on columns typically used for this determination.
