闪锌矿铷-锶同位素等时线讨论

通过对闪锌矿铷-锶同位素等时线形成机制的讨论,若为同源、同期、待测同位素封闭的体系,因混合形成的直线为等时线具有定年意义,但若非同源、非同期或非封闭的体系亦可因混合形成直线,但该直线为无年代学意义的混合线。作为铷-锶同位素定年矿物,闪锌矿可能仅充当＂容器＂的角色,因此利用闪锌矿进行定年时,必须进行细致的物相研究。闪锌矿中的碳酸盐、硅酸盐等矿物微粒可能对铷-锶定年产生极大的影响,如不能对其进行成因鉴别或配合其他同位素定年方法加以系统研究,闪锌矿铷-锶法直线拟合结果很难反映成矿时间.

Correct identification of polychlorinated biphenyls in temperature-programmed GC with ECD detection

A method has been developed for peak identification of PCBs in GC with ECD detection under different temperature programs and isothermal conditions on two commonly used columns (DB-5 and DB-1701). This was achieved by means of accurate calibration of retention times based on the concept of the relative retention index P-i and retention times of the selected PCB internal standards. The P-i was calculated from the predicted retention times with the database of the retention parameters (A, B) and the migration equations. Through comparison of the calibrated and experimental retention times of PCBs in technical samples, it was shown that the developed method was effective for correct PCB comprehensive, quantitative, congener-specific (CQCS) analyses.
