AU126: Determination of Diethanolamine and Triethanolamine in Surface Finishing, Wastewater and Scrubber Solutions

Instrument Type: IC

Alkanolamines are important in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and petroleum industries. Their analysis is also important in metal surface finishing and in wastewater effluents. Ion chromatography (IC) works particularly well for separations of alkanolamines. This application update describes the use of the OmniPac PAX-500 column with Pulsed Amperometric Detection (PAD) to measure alkanolamines.
