[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of flame retardant detection, and particularly relates to a detection method for the purity of phosphorus-containing flame retardants. BACKGROUND

[0002] Phosphorus-containing flame retardants are widely concerned in the flame retardant field due to their low-halogen or halogen-free characteristics. At present, as a kind of efficient, low-toxic and environmentally friendly flame retardant, phosphorus-containing flame retardants are widely used in the flame-retardant industry of electronic products. The phosphorus-containing flame retardant belongs to an organic compound, which is often synthesized by multi-process organic reaction and then separated and purified. In industrial applications, the purity is a key performance index of the product. The liquid chromatography or gas chromatography is commonly used to determine the purity of organic compounds. However, the phosphorus-containing flame retardant is a high-melting-point solid substance, and cannot be detected by gas chromatography. The liquid chromatograph is relatively expensive, has high purchase cost and occupies a large space. SUMMARY

[0003] In order to overcome the above problems, the application provides a detection method for the purity of phosphorus-containing flame retardants.

[0004] The technical scheme adopted by the application is as follows:

[0005] A detection method for the purity of phosphorus-containing flame retardants, comprising the following steps:

[0006] Step 1: sample preparation: take 20㎎-100mg clean and impurity-free flame retardant sample, place it in a beaker, add a solvent filtered by a 600-mesh screen, dissolve and transfer to a volumetric flask, fully dissolve the flame retardant sample in the solvent, perform constant volume after complete dissolution, shake uniformly, use a pipette to take 30mL solution into a 100mL volumetric flask, perform constant volume and shake to mix uniformly;

[0007] Step 2: spectral determination: use a pipette gun to take 5mL solution and place it in a cuvette, determine the absorption curve under 190nm-800nm, and record the maximum absorption wavelength;

[0008] Step 3: photometric determination: after selecting the maximum absorption wavelength, determine the absorbance at the wavelength, determine three times for each sample, record the average value of the test results, and compare with the standard to determine the purity of the sample;

[0009] or after selecting the maximum absorption wavelength, determine the absorbance at the wavelength, determine three times for each sample, record the average value of the test results, compare the photometric values of different batches of samples, and determine the batch stability.

[0010] The phosphorus-containing flame retardant is a mixture of one or more of hydroquinone bis(diphenyl phosphate), resorcinol bis(diphenyl phosphate) triphenyl phosphate, resorcinol bis[di(2,6-dimethylphenyl) phosphate], hexaphenoxy cyclotriphosphazene, 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide (DOPO), and 10-(2,5-dihydroxyphenyl)-10-hydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide (DOPO-HQ).

[0011] The solvent is a combination of one or more of butanone, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, acetone, 2-heptanone, tetrahydrofuran, N,N-dimethylformamide, acetonitrile, methanol, and ethanol.

[0012] The cuvette is a quartz cuvette, and the optical path is not limited, and the test conditions are ensured to be consistent.

[0013] The purity of the sample to be measured is determined according to the value of the absorbance of the standard sample, and the calculation formula is as follows:

[0014] w=A1 / A RM * 100 %.

[0015] In the formula, w is the purity of the sample, A1 is the absorbance of the sample under the same test conditions, A RM is the absorbance of the standard sample under the same test conditions, and 100 % is the purity of the standard sample.

[0016] The advantages of the present application are as follows:

[0017] A low-cost, simple-to-operate, efficient, and reliable phosphorus-containing flame retardant purity detection method is provided, the ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer instrument used for detection has low cost, high efficiency, good reproducibility, and small sample amount, and the product quality control cost of an enterprise is reduced.

[0018] The provided phosphorus-containing flame retardant purity detection method can simultaneously detect multiple workstations when detecting a single sample, facilitating comparison of product batch stability. At the same time, comparison and analysis of incoming materials from different manufacturers can also be achieved. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
