An important consideration when evaluating a technology is whether the analyte is halogenated or non-halogenated. A halogenated organic compound contains a molecule of chlorine, bromine, iodine, and/or fluorine. The nature of the halogen bond and the halogen itself can significantly affect performance of a technology or require more extensive analysis than for non-halogenated compounds.
The following is a list of common halogenated VOCs:
Bromodichloromethane Bromoform Bromomethane Carbon tetrachloride Chlorodibromomethane Chloroethane Chloroform Chloromethane Chloropropane Cis-1,2-dichloroethylene Cis-1,3-dichloropropene Dibromomethane 1,1-Dichloroethane 1,2-Dichloroethane 1,2-Dichloroethene Trichloroethylene (TCE) 1,2,2-trifluoroethane (Freon 113) 1,1-Dichloroethylene Dichloromethane 1,2-Dichloropropane Ethylene dibromide Fluorotrichloromethane (Freon 11) Hexachloroethane Methylene chloride Monochlorobenzene 1,1,2,2-Tetrachloroethane Tetrachloroethylene or Perchloroethylene(PCE) 1,2-Trans-dichloroethylene Trans-1,3-dichloropropene 1,1,1-Trichloroethane 1,1,2-Trichloroethane Vinyl chloride
