Must Listen! GC-MS Solutions Compliant with the RoHS Directive

Introduction to the GC-MS system used for the analysis of phthalate esters and brominated flame retardants in the RoHS directive and business efficiency improvements.

The RoHS Directive is a European law concerning the regulation of chemical substances in electrical and electronic equipment. It defines a wide range of substances, from inorganic to organic materials, as regulated items and establishes specific threshold values for each. When domestic companies export products related to electrical and electronic equipment to Europe and other regions, they must demonstrate that the concentration of all these items is below the specified threshold values. This e-learning will provide an overview of GC/MS analysis related to phthalate esters in accordance with the RoHS Directive, as well as solutions for improving operational efficiency using the Thermo Scientific Chromeleon 7 Chromatography Data System. Additionally, the latest information on effective confirmation methods for the additive TOTM, which affects the false positive results of DEHP, will also be presented. https://www.thermofisher.com/jp/ja/home/technical-resources/e-learnings/gc-ms.html

basic information

Our company recommends the Thermo Scientific ISQ 7000 single quadrupole GC-MS system for screening and precise quantitative analysis of phthalate esters and brominated flame retardants in accordance with the RoHS directive. The excellent maintainability of the ISQ 7000 provides an advantage for obtaining reliable analytical results. By operating a planned ion source replacement cycle, analysis can always be performed with a refreshed ion source. The e-workflow, which can comprehensively execute all testing operations from measurement to analysis and report generation, enables a simple and reliable work process. By optimizing the report format, the burden of result verification for analysts is simplified, allowing for faster and more accurate results in screening analyses that require a large number of sample analyses. - Compliant with the RoHS directive - GC-MS system with good maintainability - Comprehensive execution of testing operations from measurement to analysis and report generation
