Simultaneous Analysis of Trace Oxygenates and Hydrocarbons in Ethylene Feedstocks Using Agilent 7890A GC Capillary Flow Technology
Abstract:
The presence of trace hydrocarbons in ethylene can have damaging effects on both the process catalysts and the final polymer products. Test methods such as ASTM D6159 are used to ensure the quality of these feedstocks [1]. However,
the analysis of other key contaminants, such as oxygenates, requires GC methods that run on separate instruments. This can be time consuming and expensive for the process analysis lab.
