The evaluation of solid phase micro-extraction fibre types for the analysis of organic components in unburned propellant powders was written by Dalby, Oliver;Birkett, Jason W.. And the article was included in Journal of Chromatography A in 2010.COA of Formula: C12H22O4 This article mentions the following:
This work describes the evaluation of various solid phase micro-extraction (SPME) fiber types for the detection of compounds originating from particles of unburned propellant powders. These compounds may also be found in association with organic gunshot residues (OGSR). Seven SPME fibers were assessed based on their ability to extract the compounds of interest (diphenylamine (DPA), 4-nitrodiphenylamine (4-NDPA), Et centralite (EC), nitroglycerin (NG) and di-Bu phthalate (DBP)) from four ammunition types across three calibres (9 mm, 5.56 mm and 7.62 mm). Extracts were analyzed by gas chromatog./mass spectrometry (GC/MS). The 65 μm polydimethylsiloxane/divinylbenzene (PDMS/DVB) was the most suitable fiber type for the extraction of these compounds across the ammunition types tested. Optimal extraction time parameters were also assessed with a 35-min period determined to be suitable. A number of previously unreported considerations for extracting propellant powders and potentially OGSR related materials are discussed. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, Dimethyl decanedioate (cas: 106-79-6COA of Formula: C12H22O4).
Dimethyl decanedioate (cas: 106-79-6) belongs to esters. Esters perform as high-grade solvents for a broad array of plastics, plasticizers, resins, and lacquers, and are one of the largest classes of synthetic lubricants on the commercial market. Polyesters are important plastics, with monomers linked by ester moieties. Because of their lack of hydrogen-bond-donating ability, esters do not self-associate. Consequently, esters are more volatile than carboxylic acids of similar molecular weight.COA of Formula: C12H22O4
