“…Selection of a fiber coating depends on the properties of the compounds and the coatings. PDMS coating is preferred by nonpolar compounds such as PAHs [37], polybrominateddiphenyl esters (PBDEs) [34], OCCs [29], and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) [38,39] while polyacrylate (PA) coating is usually used for relatively polar compounds such as phenols [37], alcohols [32,40,41], organophosphate ester [30], surfactants [25,[42][43][44], and anilines [45]. On the other hand, when the volume ratio of the fiber coating to the sample is constant, fibers with low K ff value can be chosen as an alternative option when the sensitivity is allowed.…”
