Application
2-Ethylhexyl acrylate has been used as a reference standard for the analysis of 2-ethylhexyl acrylate in glossy water-based lacquer by thermal desorption and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS).[1]
It may be used as a reference standard for the determination of 2-ethylhexyl acrylate in:
Exhaled breath samples from cigarette smokers by capillary micro-extracton (CMV) coupled with GC-MS.[2]
Food paper contact papers by modified quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged and safe (QuEchERS) extraction procedure combined with gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS).[3]
Polymer emulsions by headspace (HS) GC-MS operating on selected ion monitoring (SIM) mode.[4]
Adhesives employed in food contact materials by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-QTOF/MS).[5]
