Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to a pressure-resistant glass vial for chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis. Background Technology

[0002] Pressure-resistant glass bottles are widely used in organic synthesis, thermal melting, and pressure extraction. To maintain good sealing, rubber rings are typically used. However, under the corrosive effects of high-temperature solvents, substances within the rubber rings can leach out or decompose, contaminating the sample. Furthermore, during use, the PTFE threaded stoppers wear down and shed fine debris, further contaminating the sample. Additionally, when analyzing samples using chromatography / mass spectrometry, especially when analyzing trace compounds, contaminants in the sample can cause interference, making it difficult to determine the source of impurity peaks. Therefore, this severely impacts both qualitative and quantitative analysis using chromatography / mass spectrometry. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this application proposes a pressure-resistant glass vial for chromatographic and mass spectrometric analysis, comprising a vial body with a conical opening at the top. The cross-sectional area of ​​the conical opening gradually increases away from the vial body. A threaded section is provided at the top of the conical opening, and a glass stopper is fitted inside the conical opening to abut against it. A threaded rod is threaded into the threaded section, with its bottom abutting against the glass stopper. This application achieves both a double seal and pressure resistance by adding a glass stopper to the conical opening of the vial body and using a threaded rod to abut against it.

[0004] Preferably, a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) explosion-proof cover is fitted over the outside of the bottle; the PTFE explosion-proof cover has several observation holes. This application uses a PTFE explosion-proof cover on the outside of the bottle, which improves the pressure resistance of the device and expands its application range.

[0005] Preferably, the glass stopper is a ground glass stopper; the glass stopper is a truncated cone.

[0006] Preferably, the top of the pressing threaded rod is provided with an enlarged operating protrusion.

[0007] Preferably, the top of the pressing threaded rod is provided with an enlarged operating protrusion, and a transition connecting section is provided between the enlarged operating protrusion and the pressing threaded rod.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the threaded rod has a bottom protrusion, and an annular groove is provided on the side of the bottom protrusion. A sealing ring is provided in the annular groove, and the bottom of the sealing ring abuts against the glass stopper; the sealing ring is a fluororubber sealing ring. This application, by using a glass stopper and an upper sealing ring to press against each other, isolates the solvent inside the bottle from contact with the sealing ring, effectively preventing trace contaminants such as antioxidants, plasticizers, alkanes, and oligomers that may be present in the sealing ring from contaminating the sample. Simultaneously, it effectively prevents solvent corrosion of the sealing ring, extending its service life.

[0009] Preferably, the top of the glass stopper is provided with two opposing vertical operating grooves; the vertical operating grooves are arc-shaped grooves.

[0010] Preferably, a connecting through hole is provided between the vertical operating slots, a connecting operating line is inserted into the connecting through hole, and the other end of the connecting operating line is inserted through the pressing threaded rod.

[0011] Preferably, a bottom arc plate is provided at the bottom of the bottle, and a stirring magnet is provided inside the bottom arc plate.

[0012] Preferably, the threaded rod is a polytetrafluoroethylene rod. This application can effectively prevent trace substances that are difficult to clean from remaining on the sealing ring after the experiment from causing cross-contamination in the next experiment, thereby improving the accuracy of the experiment and facilitating the qualitative and quantitative analysis of trace organic matter in the sample by chromatography / mass spectrometry, ensuring the correctness of the analytical results.

[0013] This application can bring the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. This application achieves a double sealing and pressure-bearing function by adding a glass stopper to the conical opening of the bottle and cooperating with a threaded rod to resist pressure.

[0015] 2. This application has a polytetrafluoroethylene explosion-proof cover on the outside of the bottle, which improves the pressure resistance of this application and expands the scope of application of the device.

[0016] 3. This application isolates the solvent inside the bottle from contact with the sealing ring by setting a glass stopper and an upper sealing ring to press against each other. This effectively prevents trace contaminants such as antioxidants, plasticizers, alkanes, and oligomers that may be present in the sealing ring from contaminating the sample. At the same time, it can effectively prevent the solvent from corroding the sealing ring and extend the service life of the sealing ring.

[0017] 4. This application can effectively prevent trace substances that are difficult to clean from remaining on the sealing ring after the experiment from causing cross-contamination in the next experiment, thereby improving the accuracy of the experiment and facilitating the qualitative and quantitative analysis of trace organic matter in the sample by chromatography / mass spectrometry, ensuring the correctness of the analytical results.
