Abstract :
An online analyzer for impurities in corrosive gases was developed using an HP-5973 MSD quadrupole mass selective detector equipped with customized data acquisition and gas sample inlet. The instrument was evaluated for its ability to quantitatively analyze moisture and other impurities at the ppm level in HCl.
