General description

tert-Amyl methyl ether (TAME) is a fuel oxygenate which is utilized as an additive in gasoline to enhance the octane rating and to improve combustion.

Application

Refer to the product′s Certificate of Analysis for more information on a suitable instrument technique. Contact Technical Service for further support.
TAME has been used as a reference standard for the determination of the analyte in Catalonian groundwater and soil samples by purge-and-trap gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (P&T-GC/MS) and in aqueous solutions by solid-phase microextraction (SPME) combined with GC-MS. It may be used as a reference standard for the identification of the analyte in gasoline-contaminated groundwater by GC combined with various detectors/quantification methods such as photoionization detector (PID), flame ionization detector (FID), or MS.
