Resin Acids in Rosin (Colophony) Solder Flux Fume Laboratory Method Using Gas Chromatography
Health and Safety Executive Resin acids in rosin (colophony) solder flux fume Laboratory method using gas chromatography Scope 1 This method describes the measurement of time-weighted average concentrations of rosin (also known as colophony) based solder flux fume collected onto membrane filters with analysis of the resin acid components, after derivatisation, by gas chromatography (GC). Summary 2 A measured volume of air is drawn through a membrane filter mounted in a sampling head close to the breathing zone. The filter is solvent desorbed, the resin acids derivatised and then quantified using GC with a flame ionisation detector (FID). If confirmation of the resin acid components’ identities is required, samples may also be analysed by GC with a mass spectrometer (MS) detector. However, MS is not recommended for quantitative analysis as, unlike an FID, the MS detector gives different response factors for the various resin acids. The use of alternative methods not included in the MDHS series is acceptable provided they can demonstrate the accuracy and reliability appropriate to the application. Recommended sampling 3 For long-term exposures: Maximum sampling time: 8 hours; Sampling rate: 1–2 l-1min; Sampled volume: up to 960 litres. For short-term exposures: Sampling time: 15 mins; Sampling rate: 2 lmin-1; Sampled volume: 30 litres. Prerequisites 4 Users of this method will need to be familiar with the content of MDHS14.1 Safety 5 Users of this method should be familiar with normal laboratory practice and MDHS83/3 carry out a suitable risk assessment. It is the user’s responsibility to establish appropriate health and safety practices and to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements. -

Application of Biomarker Compounds As Tracers for Sources and Fates of Natural and Anthropogenic Organic Matter in Tile Environment
AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Daniel R. Oros for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Sciences presented on September 24. 1999. Title: Application of Biomarker Compoundsas Tracers for Sources and Fates of Natural and Anthropogenic Organic Matter in the Environment. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Bernd R.T. Simoneit Determination of the source and fate of natural (higher plant lipids, marine lipids, etc.) and anthropogenically (e.g., petroleum, coal emissions) derived hydrocarbons and oxygenated compounds in the environment was accomplished using gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC- MS) to characterize or identify molecular biomarkers to be utilized as tracers. The distributions and abundances of biomarkers such as straight chain homologous series (e.g., n-alkanes, n-alkanoic acids, n-alkan-2-ones, n-alkanols, etc.) and cyclic terpenoid compounds (e.g., sesquiterpenoids, diterpenoids, steroids, triterpenoids) were identified in epicuticular waxes from conifers of western North America (natural emissions). These biomarkers and their thermal alteration derivativeswere also identified in smoke emissions from known vegetation sources (e.g., conifers, deciduous trees and grasses) and were then applied as tracers in soils, soils that contained wildfire residues and soillriver mud washout after wildfire burning. Where possible, the reaction pathways of transformation from the parentprecursor compounds to intermediate and final alteration products were determined from GC- MS data. In addition, molecular tracer analysis was applied to air, water and sediment samples collected from a lacustrine setting (Crater Lake, OR) in order to determine the identities, levels and fates of anthropogenic (i.e., petroleum hydrocarbon contamination from boating and related activities) hydrocarbons ina pristine organic matter sink. -

Determination of Terpenoid Content in Pine by Organic Solvent Extraction and Fast-Gc Analysis
ORIGINAL RESEARCH published: 25 January 2016 doi: 10.3389/fenrg.2016.00002 Determination of Terpenoid Content in Pine by Organic Solvent Extraction and Fast-GC Analysis Anne E. Harman-Ware1* , Robert Sykes1 , Gary F. Peter2 and Mark Davis1 1 National Bioenergy Center, National Renewable Energy Laboratory, Golden, CO, USA, 2 School of Forest Resources and Conservation, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL, USA Terpenoids, naturally occurring compounds derived from isoprene units present in pine oleoresin, are a valuable source of chemicals used in solvents, fragrances, flavors, and have shown potential use as a biofuel. This paper describes a method to extract and analyze the terpenoids present in loblolly pine saplings and pine lighter wood. Various extraction solvents were tested over different times and temperatures. Samples were analyzed by pyrolysis-molecular beam mass spectrometry before and after extractions to monitor the extraction efficiency. The pyrolysis studies indicated that the optimal extraction method used a 1:1 hexane/acetone solvent system at 22°C for 1 h. Extracts from the hexane/acetone experiments were analyzed using a low thermal mass modular accelerated column heater for fast-GC/FID analysis.

polymers Review A Review of Wood Biomass-Based Fatty Acids and Rosin Acids Use in Polymeric Materials Laima Vevere *, Anda Fridrihsone , Mikelis Kirpluks and Ugis Cabulis Polymer Department, Latvian State Institute of Wood Chemistry, 27 Dzerbenes Str., LV-1006 Riga, Latvia; [email protected] (A.F.); [email protected] (M.K.); [email protected] (U.C.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +371-28869638 Received: 26 October 2020; Accepted: 14 November 2020; Published: 16 November 2020 Abstract: In recent decades, vegetable oils as a potential replacement for petrochemical materials have been extensively studied. Tall oil (crude tall oil, distilled tall oil, tall oil fatty acids, and rosin acids) is a good source to be turned into polymeric materials. Unlike vegetable oils, tall oil is considered as lignocellulosic plant biomass waste and is considered to be the second-generation raw material, thus it is not competing with the food and feed chain. The main purpose of this review article is to identify in what kind of polymeric materials wood biomass-based fatty acids and rosin acids have been applied and their impact on the properties. Keywords: crude tall oil; tall oil; fatty acids; rosin acids; polymer materials 1. Introduction The success of plastics as a commodity has been significant and polymer materials are a part of everyday life. The advantages of polymers over other materials can be attributed to their adjustable properties, low cost and ease of processing. Worldwide, the manufacturing of polymers grows every year, reaching almost 360 million tonnes in 2018 [1]. In the light of environmental challenges of the 21st century, the development of novel low-cost and scalable monomers from renewable resources is essential. -
Tall Oil Production and Processing
TALL OIL PRODUCTION AND PROCESSING Tall oil is a mixture of mainly acidic compounds found, like turpentine, in pine trees and obtained as a by-product of the pulp and paper industry. It is used as a resin in many different industries, including mining, paper manufacture, paint manufacture and synthetic rubber manufacture. It is extracted at the pulp and paper mill, and undergoes the first two processing steps there. Step 1 - Extraction of tall oil soap The "black liquor" from the paper making process is concentrated and left to settle. The top layer is known as "tall oil soap", and is skimmed off. The rest is recycled for further use in paper making. Step2 - Production of crude tall oil The tall oil soap is reacted with acid to form crude tall oil. The following reaction occurs: + + R—COONa + H3O → R—COOH + H2O + Na The acids formed from this reaction, along with small quantities of other compounds of similar volatility, make up the crude tall oil. All crude tall oil produced in New Zealand is then sent to a plant in Mt. Maunganui to complete processing. Step 3 - Crude tall oil distillation The oil is distilled into five components with different boiling points: heads (which boils first), then fatty acids, distilled tall oil (a mixture of fatty and resin acids), resin acids (collectively known as rosin) and pitch (the residue). All of these can be used in various industries as is, but some of the rosin is also further processed on site. Step 4 - Production of rosin paper size "Paper size" is the substance that stops all paper from behaving like blotting paper. -
