CHLOROACETIC ACID: METHOD 2008, Issue 2, dated 15 August 1994 - Page 4 of 4 The breakthrough volume of the 100-mg sorbent section was found to be >100 L at 0.2 L/min when sampling chloroacetic acid concentrations of 60 mg/m 3 at 42 °C and RH of 10 and 80% and 35 mg/m 3 at 27 °C and 10 and 90% RH. Samples stored at ambient temperature for 7 days had a mean recovery of 91% and a precision, S r, of 0.047. Samples refrigerated after day 7, and stored for 32 days exhibited a mean recovery of 100% with a precision, S r, of 0.085 based on samples analyzed on day 1.
