FTIR를 이용한 호흡성 분진중 α-quartz, cristobalite, kaolinite 혼합물 정량 분석 연구

This study is to quantify α-quartz, cristobalite and kaolinite using by FTIR in respirable dust generated in the mining workplace. Various minerals in mines can interfere with peaks when quantifying respirable crystalline silica by FTIR. Therefore, for accurate quantification, it is necessary to remove interfering substances or correct the peaks that cause interference. To confirm the peaks occurring in α-quartz, cristobalite and kaolinite, each standard material was diluted with KBr and scanned in the range of 400 cm-1 to 4000 cm-1 using by FTIR. As a result of scanning the analytes, it was decided to use the peaks of 797.66 cm-1 and 695.25 cm-1 for α-quartz, 621.58 cm-1 for cristobalite, and 3696.47 cm-1 for kaolinite. When the above materials are mixed, interference occurs at the peak for quantification, which is corrected by the calculation formula. The analysis of the mixture of α-quartz and cristobalite shows the average bias (%) of 2.64 (corrected) at α-quartz (797.66 cm-1), 5.61 (uncorrected) at α-quartz (695.25 cm-1) and 1.51 (uncorrected) at cristobalite (621.58 cm-1). The analysis of the mixture of α-quartz and kaolinite shows the average bias(%) of 1.79(corrected) at α-quartz (797.66 cm-1), 3.92 (corrected) at α-quartz (695.25 cm-1) and 2.58 (uncorrected) at kaolinite (3696.47 cm-1). The analysis of the mixture of cristobalite and kaolinite shows the average bias (%) of 2.15 (corrected) at cristobalite (621.58 cm-1), 4.32 (uncorrected) at kaolinite (3696.47 cm-1). The analysis of the mixture of αquartz and cristobalite and kaolinite shows the average bias (%) of 1.93(corrected) at α-quartz (797.66 cm-1), 6.47 (corrected) at α-quartz (695.25 cm-1) and 1.77 (corrected) at cristobalite (621.58 cm-1) and 2.61 (uncorrected) at kaolinite (3696.47 cm-1). The experimental results showed that the deviation caused by peak interference by two or three substances could be corrected to less than 6 % of the average deviation. This study showed the possibility of correcting and quantifying when various interfering substances that are difficult to remove are mixed. 본 연구는 광산 작업장에서 발생하는 분진중 알파쿼츠(α-quartz), 크리스토발라이트(cristobalite), 카오린나이트(kaolinite)를 FTIR로 정량하기 위한 연구이다. 광산에 있는 다양한 광물들은 결정형 산화규소를 FTIR로 정량할 때 피크에 간섭을 일으킬 수 있다. 따라서 정확한 정량을 위해서는 방해물질을 제거하거나 간섭을 일으킨 피크의 보정이 필요하다. 알파쿼츠, 크리스토발라이트, 카오린나이트에서 발생하는 피크의 위치를 확인하기 위해 각각의 표준물질을 KBr로 희석하여 FTIR로 400 cm-1에서 4000 cm-1까지 스캔하였다. 그 결과, α-quartz는 797.66 cm-1와 695.25 cm-1, cristobalite는 621.58 cm-1, kaolinite는 3696.47 cm
