Background technology
In quantitative test, generally need to use internal standard method and external standard method (also being calibration curve method).
External standard method is a kind of by setting up the relation curve between sample response value and its concentration, the method for sample being carried out quantitative test.
In external standard method, because the chromatographic condition of each sample analysis is very difficult identical, as: analysis result appears than mistake in the response performance of detecting device, column temperature, mobile phase flow rate and composition, sample size etc. easily; And external standard method can't compensate the variation of component to be measured in the pre-treatment process, therefore generally seldom uses in the miniaturization instrument.
Internal standard method is a kind of by selecting the reference substance of suitable material as component to be measured, it quantitatively is added in the testing sample goes, the method that the amount that the ratio of foundation component to be measured and the response of reference substance on detecting device and reference substance add is carried out quantitative test.
Internal standard method has overcome in the external standard method, and when carrying out the testing sample analysis, chromatographic condition is difficult to identical and quantitative error that cause at every turn.Internal standard method joins reference substance in the testing sample and goes, component to be measured and reference substance are analyzed under same chromatographic condition, quantitative accuracy is improved, particularly how much irrelevant the ratio of the component to be measured of internal mark method determination and reference material response under same testing conditions and sample size be, and this can eliminate in the external standard method fully because the error of the inaccurate generation of sample size.
The variation of sample size, the subtle change of chromatographic condition are little to inner mark method ration result's influence, particularly testing sample are being carried out adding internal standard compound before the pre-treatment, and then are carrying out pre-treatment, can partly compensate the loss of component to be measured when sample pre-treatments.If obtain high-precision result, can add multiple internal standard compound, to improve the precision of quantitative test.The key of internal standard method is to select suitable internal standard compound, and the amount of internal standard compound component best and to be measured is close.
In the express-analysis instrument, generally standard specimen (interior gas) is stored in gas cylinder, during sample introduction at the scene, control by stream switching and solenoid valve, after sample gas to be analyzed and the standard specimen in the gas cylinder are mixed, enter the sample introduction module again, enter analytic system analysis then.What the Hapsite type portable gas chromatography of Inficon company-GC-MS adopted is exactly aforesaid way.This method has realized interior gas is added sample gas, has improved the quantitative test ability of instrument, but has had following shortcoming:
1, the gas cylinder finite volume of gas in the dress, gas only can use tens times in one bottle, needs often to change equipment operation expense height;
2, the amount that needs gas in the strict control, and interior gas need mix with sample gas, and the gas flow path design is complicated, causes the instruments design complexity, and is bulky, cost height, poor reliability;
3, the concentration change wide ranges of on-the-spot testing sample, and the interior gas concentration in the gas gas cylinder is unadjustable, the mark implementation makes the bad adaptability of on-the-spot testing sample in this kind;
4, same gas cylinder only can charge into the close limited several gases of physicochemical property, and much active chemistry can not use gas cylinder, and therefore interior gas kind is few;
5, bottled gas is because the interaction of the variation of pressure or gas cylinder inside surface and gas composition causes standard gas accuracy decline, thereby is not easy to be traceable to NIST, and EPA standard and ASTM standard are not approved.
The utility model content
In order to solve above-mentioned deficiency of the prior art, the analytical equipment that the utility model provides that a kind of apparatus structure is simple, cost is low, long service life and interior gas concentration may command, component can expand by demand.
For achieving the above object, the utility model adopts following technical scheme:

Further, described analytical instrument is chromatogram, mass spectrum or chromatograph-mass spectrometer coupling analyser.
As preferably, fill different chemical substances in the different osmos tubes, by changing or select gas kind in the osmos tube adjustment.
Above-mentioned analytical approach and device adopt osmos tube, and be based on: osmos tube is a miniaturization device of being made by porous film material, in the osmos tube the inside chemical substance are housed, and this chemical substance is in the biphase equilibrium state of gas phase and liquid phase (perhaps solid phase).
When osmos tube is under definite temperature, gaseous chemical substance can infiltrate from osmos tube with the permeability of determining.The gaseous chemical substance that infiltrates from osmos tube becomes the gas of concentration known by the carrier gas proportioning, the calibrating gas of using as quantitative test.The concentration of the calibrating gas that osmos tube produces is by the permeability of osmos tube and the flow decision of carrier gas; Sample gas is as carrier gas, and the sample airshed is controlled by flow control system; Gas permeability is only determined by the character and the residing permeate chamber temperature of osmos tube of chemical substance.This shows that gas concentration is by the gas kind, osmos tube temperature and carrier gas flux determine; After gas was determined, gas concentration only depended on osmos tube temperature and carrier gas flux.
In the gas generator of being made by osmos tube, the concentration of gas is by permeate chamber temperature and carrier gas flux decision.The computing formula of gas concentration is:
Wherein C is a gas volume concentration, the ppm of unit; P is a permeability, the ng/min of unit; Mw is a molecular weight gas; Fc is the total flow of gas combination gas, the cc/min of unit; 24.46 be the molar volume of gas under standard conditions; Km is the molecular weight constant.
When osmos tube is under definite temperature, gaseous compound can infiltrate from osmos tube with the permeability of determining.Permeability is as follows with the relation of temperature:
logP
1=logP
0+α(T
1-T
0)
P wherein
0Be T
0Permeability under the temperature, P
1Be T
1Permeability under the temperature, α is a temperature coefficient.

The utility model compared with prior art has following beneficial effect:
1, long service life

Simultaneously, because the flow controlling unit of control criterion gas concentration and temperature conditioning unit all overlap with analytical instrument shared, make system architecture compact simple, volume is little, and is in light weight;
3, cost is low
The cost of osmos tube simultaneously, does not need complicated magnetic valve controller to come the amount of gas in the strict control far below bottled gas, and cost reduces significantly;
4, interior gas concentration may command
By the flow of change sample gas or the temperature in the residing permeate chamber of osmos tube, the concentration of gas in can in very wide scope, changing;
5, interior gas kind is convenient adjusts
Only need simply remove or increase the kind that osmos tube just can increase and decrease interior gas easily;
6, concentration precision height
Can be traceable to NIST, EPA standard and ASTM standard are all approved the gas generating means based on osmos tube.
