Biological durability of wood and wood-based products. Quantitative determination of pentachlorophenol in wood. Gas chromatographic method
This document specifies a laboratory method of determining the pentachlorophenol content of wood.
The method is applicable to all types of pentachlorophenol (PCP) in woods and wood-based materials as well as for the analysis of waste timber with respect to its pentachlorophenol (PCP) content.
The method described has a measurement range from 250 µg/kg up to pentachlorophenol (PCP) contents of 5 mg/kg of dry matter. These figures refer to the given example (where an aliquot of 1 ml of the extract is used for acetylation, see 9.3).
NOTE 1: If lower quantification limits are required, a higher volume of extract aliquot can be used for derivatisation.
NOTE 2: This method could have some modifications with some wood species such as hardwoods. In general, in the case of complex matrix, a method using mass spectrometry can be used.
