Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

The impurity composition of 28SiF4 has been studied for the first time by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry using gas-adsorption capillary columns. For identification and determination of impurity substances by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, we have proposed using cryogenic preconcentration of the impurities from 28SiF4. The presence of C2–C4 hydrocarbon impurities and sulfur hexafluoride has been confirmed. We have identified 35 impurity substances in 28SiF4, including linear and branched C5–C8 saturated hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons, chlorine- and fluorine-containing hydrocarbons, and silicon- and sulfur-containing substances, of which 28 have been detected for the first time.
