Wh. Qiao et al., Trace determination of 5-n-decyl-2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene sulfonate in n-nonane by derivative spectrophotometry, TENSIDE SUR, 38(5), 2001, pp. 288-290
UV spectrophotometry and derivative spectrophotometry were used to determin
e the trace presence of 5-n-alkyl-1,2,3,4- tetrahydronaphthalene sulfonate
(DTHNS) in n-nonane. A method to determine the trace presence of DTHNS by d
erivative spectrophotometry was developed. This method is applicable for co
ncentrations ranging from 2 ppm to 200 ppm.
