| Test Item | Common Test Method | Method Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Identification Test | Infrared Spectroscopy (IR) | Determine the infrared absorption spectrum of the sample and compare it with the reference spectrum to confirm the presence of characteristic functional groups (such as hydroxyl, ether bond, etc.) of 3-methoxy-1,2-propanediol. |
| Assay | Gas Chromatography (GC) | Use a capillary gas chromatographic column with an appropriate internal standard (e.g., n-propanol) for quantitative analysis. The assay content is calculated by peak area normalization or internal standard method. Suitable for samples with good volatility and thermal stability. |
| Assay | High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) | Use a reversed-phase C18 column with water-organic solvent (e.g., methanol or acetonitrile) as the mobile phase and UV detection (typically at low wavelengths such as 200–210 nm). Suitable for quantitative analysis of thermally unstable or non-volatile samples. |
| Water Content | Karl Fischer Titration | Quantitatively determine trace moisture in organic compounds using the Karl Fischer reagent, which reacts stoichiometrically with water. Water content is precisely measured via volumetric or coulometric titration. This is the standard method for determining trace water in organic substances. |
| Residual Solvents | Headspace Gas Chromatography (HS-GC) | The sample is placed in a sealed headspace vial and heated to equilibrium; the vapor phase is then injected into a GC system to separate and detect potential residual organic solvents (e.g., methanol, acetone), in compliance with ICH Q3C guidelines. |
| Related Substances / Impurities | Gas Chromatography (GC) or High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) | Using gradient elution or programmed temperature ramping to separate and detect by-products or degradation impurities (e.g., 1,2-propanediol, 3-chloro-1,2-propanediol) that may arise during synthesis. Quantification is performed by area normalization or with correction factors. |
| Acid Value / Acidity | Acid-Base Titration | Titrate free acids in the sample with a standard sodium hydroxide solution, using phenolphthalein indicator or potentiometric endpoint detection to assess the level of acidic impurities. |
| Refractive Index | Refractometry | Measure the refractive index of the sample at a specified temperature (usually 20°C or 25°C). Used as a physical constant for identification and purity assessment. |
| Relative Density | Densimeter or Pycnometer Method | Determine the density of the sample under standard temperature conditions for quality consistency control. |
