Abstract

It is shown that 10-chloro-9,10-dihydrophenarsazine and dibenz[b, f][1,4]oxazepine can be determined with the use of indicator tubes containing 4-chloro-5,7-dinitrobenzofurazan and its N-oxide immobilized on silica gel. The conditions for the determination of these substances in air are determined. The following effects are studied: the nature, particle size, and layer thickness of the support; the nature and concentration of the analytical reagent in the chemisorption layer; the rate and time of air aspiration through the indicator tube; and various components of the sample matrix. The limit of visual detection of the toxic substances is 0.05 mg/m3.
