Measurement of TOC in Perfluorochemical (PFOS) Solution
Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) is a man-made organic straight-chain compound consisting of an 8-carbon chain with fluorine atoms bonded to each carbon, and a sulfonic acid terminal group. The persistent nature of PFOS prevents oxidative decomposition using wet chemical oxidation TOC analyzers, however, the Shimadzu high-temperature catalytic combustion TOC analyzer quantitatively recovers PFOS with high sensitivity and accuracy.
Here, we demonstrate measurement of PFOS using the TOC-LCPH high-temperature catalytic combustion and the TOC-VWS wet chemical oxidation total organic carbon analyzers.
