Standard Test Method for Determination of 4-Carboxybenzaldehyde and <emph type="bdit" >p</emph>-Toluic Acid in Purified Terephthalic Acid by Reverse Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
4.1 The presence of 4-CBA and p-TOL in PTA used for the production of polyester is undesirable because they can slow down the polymerization process and 4-CBA imparts coloration to the polymer due to thermal instability.  
4.2 Determining the amount of 4-CBA and p-TOL remaining from the manufacture of PTA is often required. This test method is suitable for setting specifications and for use as an internal quality control tool where these products are produced or are used.
SCOPE
1.1 This test method covers the determination of the 4-Carboxybenzaldehyde (4-CBA) and p-Toluic acid (p-TOL) in purified terephthalic acid (PTA) by reverse phase high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). This method is applicable for 4-CBA from 2 to 500 mg/kg and for p-TOL from 10 to 500 mg/kg, respectively.  
1.2 In determining the conformance of the test results using this method to applicable specification, results shall be rounded off in accordance with the rounding-off method of Practice E29.  
1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.  
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.  
1.5 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.

3.1 Reverse Phase HPLC Method—PTA sample is dissolved in ammonium hydroxide solution, and a fixed volume of this solution
is injected into a high performance liquid chromatograph equipped with a UV detector. A C18 chemically bonded column is used
to separate the impurities 4-CBA and p-TOL from PTA. The external standard calibration is used for quantification.
4. Significance and Use
4.1 The presence of 4-CBA and p-TOL in PTA used for the production of polyester is undesirable because they can slow down
the polymerization process and 4-CBA imparts coloration to the polymer due to thermal instability.
