Foreword

This document was drafted in accordance with the rules given in GB/T 1.1-2020 "Directives for standardization - Part 1: Rules for the structure and drafting of standardizing documents".

This document replaces GB/T 31531-2015 "Determination of quinoline in dyestuffs and textile dyeing and finishing auxiliaries". Compared to GB/T 31531-2015, in addition to structural adjustments and editorial changes, the main technical changes in this document are as follows.

a) Changed the scope of application of the standard (see Chapter 1 of this Edition; Chapter 1 of Edition 2015);

b) Added the method for determining the content of isoquinoline (see Chapter 4 of this Edition);

c) Changed the content of quinoline (see 4.3.1 of this Edition; 3.3.1 of Edition 2015);

d) Changed the packing material for capillary columns (see 4.4.2 of this Edition; 3.4.3 of Edition 2015);

e) Changed the gas chromatography operating conditions (see 4.5 of this Edition; 3.5 of Edition 2015);

f) Changed the calculation formula (see 4.9 of this Edition; 3.9 of Edition 2015);

g) Changed the recovery of quinoline (see 5.2 of this Edition; 4.2 of Edition 2015);

h) Changed the precision of quinoline (see 5.3 of this Edition; 4.3 of Edition 2015);

i) Added the recovery of isoquinoline, precision (see Chapter 5 of this Edition).

3 Terms and definitions

There are no terms or definitions that require definition in this document.

4 Test methods

4.1 General

Unless otherwise specified, only reagents that are confirmed as analytically pure and Grade 3 water as specified in GB/T 6682-2008 shall be used. Test results shall be determined using the rounded value comparison method described in 4.3.3 of GB/T 8170-2008.

4.2 Principle

The specimen is extracted with an organic solvent in an aqueous solution to remove free quinoline and isoquinoline. Gas chromatography is used for analysis. Peak area is quantified using an external standard method.

4.3 Reagents and materials

4.3.1 Quinoline. content >= 98% (mass fraction).

4.3.2 Isoquinoline. content >= 98% (mass fraction). 4.3.3 Ethyl acetate.

4.4 Instruments and equipment

4.4.1 Gas chromatograph. the performance and stability of the instrument shall comply

with the requirements of 6.2 and 6.4 of GB/T 9722-2023.

4.4.2 Capillary column. 30 m long, 0.32 mm inner diameter, 1.0 µm film thickness.

Stationary Phase. 5% phenyl-95% methylpolysiloxane, or other capillary column capable of achieving equivalent separation performance.

4.4.3 Detector. flame ionization detector (FID).

4.4.4 Microsyringe or autosampler.

4.4.5 Chromatographic workstation or integrator.

4.5 Gas chromatography operating conditions
