Abstract

The work aims to establish a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) detection method for the simultaneous determination of 32 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in food packaging materials. The equilibrium temperature and time selected were respectively 100 ℃ and 30 min. The determination was performed on HP-VOC column at the flow rate of 2.0 mL/min with helium as carrier gas. The sample was splitless sampling. Injector temperature was 250 ℃ by temperature programming. Electron impact ionization mode was used with electron impact energy of 70 eV. SIM was adopted for qualitative analysis. The ESTD method was used for quantitative analysis. The detection limit of this method was 0.01~0.17 mg/m2. The relative coefficient was more than 0.99. The sample added recovery was between 90.3% and 109.9%. RSD was between 1.1% and 8.9% (n=6). The proposed method is suitable for the determination of VOCs in food packaging materials.
