A domestic composite material based on silicon carbide and nitrile butadiene rubber was used to identify volatile substances of banana, banana flavor, and creamy chewing candies by passive adsorption in combination with thermal desorption GC–MS. This method can be used to determine a wide range of compounds, for example, esters of carboxylic acids, terpenoids, aldehydes, aromatic hydrocarbons, alkanes, heterocyclic compounds, phenols, glycerides, and fatty acids. The obtained chromatographic profiles of the samples were compared. In the chromatogram of “Banana” flavor, five peaks (out of eight) corresponded to the compounds that form the aroma of a banana, and in the chromatogram of “Love is” candies with banana flavor, three corresponding peaks (out of 21) were found.
