Investigation of Polymer–Plasticizer Blends as SH-SAW Sensor Coatings for Detection of Benzene in Water with High Sensitivity and Long-Term Stability [PDF]
We report the first-ever direct detection of benzene in water at concentrations below 100 ppb (parts per billion) using acoustic wave (specifically, shear-horizontal surface acoustic wave, SH-SAW) sensors with plasticized polymer coatings.

Chemical Behaviors of Benzene Series in Arid Soil and Impact Factors
BTEX in soil can be detrimental to human health directly by ways of plant absorption and groundwater irrigation. This paper takes benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene as the study cases to determine the content of BTEX in soil by the headspace-gas ...
