Contents Notes
"Porous polymer adsorbents have proven to be effective for collection and preconcentration of organic materials in air streams. As part of the EPA, Industry Environmental Research Laboratory-RTP Level 1 procedure (1) for environmental assessment, XAD-2 resin, a polystyrene-divinylbenzene porous polymer, is used in an adsorbent trap for the collection of volatile organic species. This resin trap is part of the Source Assessment Sampling System (SASS) which was designed specifically for environmental sampling of gaseous streams. One of the prerequisites for the selection of a material used for trapping species from such a stream is that the material introduce as small a blank value as possible in retention to the sample collected. If this blank is of sufficient size, both qualitative and quantitative determination of the materials trapped by the resin becomes difficult."
