Abstract

In this paper, a green hydrophobic deep eutectic solvent (HDES) composed of menthol and hexanoic acid was employed to dissolve cosmetics containing Cd2+ and Cd2+ was extracted using an EDTA-2Na saturated solution, analyzed by FAAS. The study found that HDES-1 can be recycled and reused well; the stability constants of Cd2+ EDTA chelates play an important role in the extracting process; the optimum conditions were: the solubility of HDES-1 was 20mL/g for cosmetic sample at an indoor temperature of around 10°C; the dissolver-extractant ratio was 2:1; the LOD was 0.037mg/kg; the RSD was 3.5%; and the recovery was 85.5-118.3%. The developed method was successfully applied to actual cosmetic samples with satisfactory results, and it was also applied for the determination of Mg2+, Mn2+, and Cu2+ in cosmetic samples.
