Surface active agents — Determination of free propylene oxide content in propylene oxide adduct surfactants — GC method

ISO 19619:2018 specifies an analytical procedure for the determination of free propylene oxide in surfactants which are synthesized from propylene oxide copolymers. The method is appropriate for the qualitative and quantitative determination of propylene oxide groups in propylene oxide adducts, polyethers and polyglycol esters by headspace gas chromatography (HS-GC) with a flame ionization detector (FID) based on external procedure. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) is used for the confirmatory purposes.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 19619:2018(E)
Surface active agents — Determination of free propylene
oxide content in propylene oxide adduct surfactants —
GC method
WARNING — The use of this document can involve hazardous materials, operations and
equipment. It does not purport to address all of the safety or environmental problems associated
with its use. It is the responsibility of users of this standard to take appropriate measures
to ensure the safety and health of personnel and the environment prior to application of the
standard, and fulfil statutory and regulatory requirements for this purpose.
1 Scope
This document specifies an analytical procedure for the determination of free propylene oxide in
surfactants which are synthesized from propylene oxide copolymers.
The method is appropriate for the qualitative and quantitative determination of propylene oxide groups
in propylene oxide adducts, polyethers and polyglycol esters by headspace gas chromatography (HS-
GC) with a flame ionization detector (FID) based on external procedure. Gas chromatography-mass
spectrometry (GC-MS) is used for the confirmatory purposes.
2 Normative references
The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content
constitutes requirements of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For
undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

3 Terms and definitions
No terms and definitions are listed in this document.
ISO and IEC maintain terminological databases for use in standardization at the following addresses:
— ISO Online browsing platform: available at https://www.iso.org/obp
— IEC Electropedia: available at http://www.electropedia.org/
4 Principles
The sample is weighed into a headspace vial and the sealed vial is placed in a head space sampling
instrument and allowed to reach thermal equilibrium. A portion of the vapour phase is then analysed by
temperature programmed gas chromatography (GC). Qualitative detection is determined by retention
time of target compounds with FID or by relative abundance ratios of the fragment ions with MSD.
Quantification is achieved by external quantification method for GC-FID.
5 Reagents
During the analysis, use only reagents of recognized analytical grade.

5.1 Water, complying with grade 3 in accordance with ISO 3696.
5.2 Certain concentration of propylene oxide stock solution, prepared by either of the following
two methods:
a) Propylene oxide, C H O, with a purity of mass fraction ≥99,7 %, dissolved in acetonitrile, vials
3 6
containing 1,0 mg of propylene oxide dissolved in 1 ml of acetonitrile.
b) Commercial propylene oxide stock solutions of appropriate concentration if available may also be
used to simplify procedure and maintain the accuracy of solution concentration, e.g. 1 000 µg/mL
dissolved suitable solvent, or equivalent.
5.3 N, N-dimetylacetamide (DMAC), C H NO, with a purity ≥99,9 %.
3 7
DMAC may be substituted with other solvent which offers affordable safety and convenience.
Applicability of the solvent should be evaluated by appropriate validation. Possible substitutes are
including, but not limited to the following:
— Dimethyl formamide (DMF);
— Diethyl formamid
