Amines

This document summarizes the performance and usage of a detector tube that measures various amines in concentrations between 5-100 ppm. It lists the amines that can be detected along with their correction factors and the color change observed in the detecting layer. The tube has a measuring range of 5-100 ppm for most amines, requires 1 pump stroke of 100 ml, and has a shelf life of 3 years. It detects amines through a reaction with sulfuric acid that forms ammonium sulfate salts.
