Summary
Residual styrene in polystyrene and free phenol in phenolic plywood adhesive have been determined by sealing samples in glass capillary tubes. To prevent loss of sample the ends of the capillary tubes were sealed with a kind of putty made of anhydrous calcium sulfare, calcium carbonate and a small quantity of phenylmethylsilicone fluid. No volatile compounds were released from this sealing material when the capillary tubes were placed in a quartz vaporising furnace at temperatures up to 300°C.
