Supercritical Fluid Extraction of Bisphenol A in Epoxy Resin

By Kohei Tamura

August 24, 2022

Introduction

Bisphenol A considered as endocrine disruptors were extracted using Supercritical Fluid Extraction (SFE) with carbon dioxide and analyzed by reversed-phase HPLC.

Fig.1 shows the chromatograms of the extracts from epoxy resins used for coating of artificial leather, electrical cables, etc.
