Industrial Analysis

The use of chemical analysis to monitor the quality of the raw materials or finished products of industrial processes goes back a long way.313,314 Indeed, some techniques owe their development to the need of industry for rapid analytical techniques. However, analytical methods are now often intimately bound up with the production itself, and supply much of the information required for the control and regulation of the process.315 A good example of a continuous monitoring technique that can be used in process control is that of electrodeless conductivity measurement its history has been described.316 A history of early industrial pH measurement and control systems has been given.317

Industrial Analysis UV/Vis molecular absorption is used for the analysis of a diverse array of industrial samples, including pharmaceuticals, food, paint, glass, and metals. In many cases the methods are similar to those described in Tables 10.6 and 10.7. For example, the iron content of food can be determined by bringing the iron into solution and analyzing using the o-phenanthroline method listed in Table 10.6.

Applications On-line SPE-GC and SPE-GC-MS couplings find wide application for sample cleanup of biological, environmental and industrial analysis of aqueous samples [67]. SPE-GC-AED/MS is ideally suited for the (nontarget) screening of hetero-atom-containing compounds in aqueous samples, and allows confirmation plus identification in one run [68]. Specific applications of hyphenated SPE-GC systems for polymer/additive analysis were not identified.

The frequencies of absorption bands present gives diagnostic information on the nature of functional groups in materials as well as information from any observed frequency shifts on aspects such as hydrogen bonding and crystallinity. In many cases, spectra can be recorded non-destructively using either reflection or transmission procedures. IR spectra of small samples can also be obtained through microscopes (IR microspectrometry). Chalmers and Dent [8] discuss the theory and practice of IR spectroscopy in their book on industrial analysis with vibrational spectroscopy. Standard spectra of additives for polymeric materials include the major collection by Hummel and Scholl [9].
