Application of gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry (GCMS) and field desorption mass spectometry (FDMS) to the identification of organic compounds leached from epoxy resin lined water mains

Abstract
The use of GCMS and FDMS to examine extracts of water before and after passage through epoxy resin lined water distribution mains has shown that many components of the resin and hardener formulations are leached into the water. Although the GCMS results indicated that the levels of some compounds leached were rapidly reduced, the FDMS results showed that other compounds were still being leached six months after relining.
