IEC 62321-13 ED1

Determination of certain substances in electrotechnical products – Part 13: Bisphenol A in plastics by liquid chromatography-diode array detection (LC-DAD), liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)

Apstrakt

IEC 62321-13 ED1 specifies three techniques for the determination of free Bisphenol A (BPA) in plastics of electrotechnical products.
This document describes the use of liquid chromatography–diode array detector (LC-DAD), liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS), liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) with these test methods detailed in Annex A and Annex B.
These test methods have been evaluated for use with PC, PC/ABS, PP matrices containing free BPA between 20 mg/kg to 500 mg/kg as shown in the Pre-IIS 13 results in Annex C and IIS 13 results in Annex D [1], [2]. The use of these methods for BPA concentration ranges of plastics, other than those specified in Annex C and Annex D, has not been evaluated.
