NIOSH 5504

Keywords: Air sampling, Organotin Compounds

The working range is 0.015 to 1 mg/m3 (as Sn) for a 300-L air sample. The method was validated using TeBT, TBTC, TCHH, and BuIOMA as surrogates for the most important classes of organotin compounds [1]. If speciation of organotin
compounds is not required and if inorganic tin compounds are absent, the HPLC separation may be deleted. Use special care to avoid losses of TeBT and other volatile tetra-substituted organotin compounds
