ard peak, D is the concentration of the internal standard, and F is the correction
factor.
6. Results. The final sample prepared by this method for gas chromatographic
analysis contains the glycol ethers, monoethanolamine, water (about 5 percent of the
product), and the nonionic surfactant. The nonionic surfactant and other high-boiling-
point materials that may be present in commercial samples are not determined but,
instead, are trapped on the precolumn which is replaced periodically to maintain satis-
factory and reproducible peak resolution.
