Poly(divinylbenzene) as a fiber coating for headspace solid-phase microextraction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from river water

Abstract

Porous polydivinylbenzene microspheres with high specific surface area were prepared by distillation-precipitation polymerization, and were used as the coating material in headspace solid phase microextraction for extracting polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Compared with the other reported sorbents, PDVB exhibits lower cost and higher extraction efficiency, and the enrichment factors can reach 5963-16 720.
