               Analysis of Additives in Plastic Using LCMS-2020
               An organic solvent (in this case, THF/MeOH = 1/1) was added to            Pretreatment Method
               a known quantity of a plastic sample. It was then sonicated and                                        Plastic Materials  Evaluation of

               the supernatant was extracted and directly analyzed. The sample
               was ionized by ESI and APCI, and was monitored simultaneously                         THF/MeOH
               in both positive and negative modes using high-speed polarity                         (50/50)
                                                                                                     1 mL

               D and E were detected with higher sensitivity in negative mode.       6MUSBTPOJD QSPDFTTJOH
               Simultaneous monitoring in both modes provides sensitive and
               accurate data, because the optimal ionization parameters can be                  Supernatant           Raw Materials  Evaluation of
