The invention discloses a method and a device for detecting
pentachlorophenol and
sodium salt thereof in air of a workplace, and belongs to the technical field of air analysis and detection. The method for detecting the
pentachlorophenol and the
sodium salt thereof in the air of the workplace comprises the following steps: S01, sampling the air; s02, carrying out
derivatization pretreatment and extraction; s03, loading a sample, and carrying out GC-MS detection; s04, drawing a
standard curve; and S05, calculating the content of
pentachlorophenol and the
sodium salt thereof in the air of the workplace according to the detection result obtained in the step S03 and the
standard curve obtained in the step S04. According to the method for detecting the pentachlorophenol and the
sodium salt of the pentachlorophenol in the air of the workplace, the quantitative concentration can reach 0.02 mg / m < 3 > (by collecting 15L of an
air sample), and the lower quantitative concentration can be reached; the adding standard
recovery rate is 96-98%, and the
correlation coefficient in the range of 0-10mg / L is greater than or equal to 0.999. According to 0.3 mg / m < 3 > of pentachlorophenol and
sodium salt thereof OELs (PC-TWA), the method can be used for detecting pentachlorophenol and
sodium salt thereof at the concentration level above the contact grade I.
