Development and Application of a Cost–Effective Analytical Method for Hydrofluorocarbons Using Preconcentrator–Gas Chromatograph–Mass Spectrometer by Yujiro Ichikawa, Yukiko Ono, Kouki Sasaka

“…Therefore, we successfully developed a measurement method for six components of HFCs (HFC–23, HFC–32, HFC–125, HFC–134a, HFC–143a, and HFC–152a) with high atmospheric concentrations in various parts of the world by optimizing measurement parameters such as the sample transfer volume and rate, module cooling temperatures, the injection time, the GC oven temperature program, and the monitored ions of a commercially available preconcentrator–GC–MS. Because this developed measurement method is cost–effective and simpler to operate than those of GHG–specific equipment, it is expected to provide an opportunity for many research institutes to measure HFCs. …”
