Received 22 February 2002; in final form 31 May 2002

A method for the determination of dicumyl peroxide in workplace air was developed and applied. Micro-impinger bottles and personal air sampling pumps were used for the sampling. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry was used for the analytical separation and quantitative determination. The technique makes it possible to monitor peroxide concentrations down to 5 µg/m3 in air.

Keywords: dicumyl peroxide; gas chromatography; GC/MS; workplace air
