Description
This project focuses on developing a method for air sampling and analysis of methylene chloride using solid sorbent tubes, followed by thermal desorption and analysis by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection.
Methylene chloride, or dichloromethane, is an organochlorine compound used in various applications, including automotive products, paint and coating removers, organic synthesis, and sample preparation in analytical chemistry.
In April 2024, the EPA issued a final rule regulating methylene chloride under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) to protect human health from health risks.
