Research and quantification of   BTEX

Light aromatic molecules such as Benzene, Toluene, Ethyl Benzene, Xylene, etc. are present in many industrial processes, in particular those involving petro-sourced raw materials.

Their great toxicity for humans and the environment make them particularly monitored and controlled molecules.
The acronym BTEX ( Benzene-Toluene-Ethylbenzene-Xylene ) defines this family of aromatic molecules:
- Benzene [71-43-2]
             - Toluene [108-88-3]
             - Ethyl Benzene [100-41-4]
             - Xylene isomers: p-Xylene [106-42-3] / m-Xylene [108-38-3] / o-Xylene [95-47-6]

The POLYMEX laboratory is therefore able to detect and quantify trace BTEX in samples with varied and complex matrices (Gels, liquids, emulsions, etc.).

This know-how responds to issues related to common themes in the industrial environment:

• Quality control and production monitoring on raw material and finished product,
• Search for contamination in polluted soils and waters,
• [...]
