In the present work we describe the methodology to obtain and modify the surface of glass fibers composed by Li2O - ZrO2 - BaO - SiO2 with zinc oxide. The glass fibers were obtained by classical fusion followed by the stretch of the vitreous fused mass, where the diameter of the fibers was controlled by the stretching velocity. They were recovered with ZnO by dip-coating and sol-gel processing of deposition, using both inorganic and organic polymeric gel methods, where the zinc acetate dihydrate was the zinc oxide precursor. The superficial morphology of the fiber was verified by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and the zinc oxide layer was characterized by mapping of Kα and Lα lines of the zinc by EDX analyses. The results of the SEM characterization pointed out the deposition of ZnO by inorganic polymeric gel method results in a thick layer of the oxide without apparent porosity, while by the organic polymeric gel method results a dip homogeneous and porous layer of ZnO over the glass fiber surface. The glass fibers recovered with ZnO by organic polymeric gel were used to develop an analytical methodology to simultaneous determination of trihalomethanes (THM´s) in drinking water using headspace-SPME-Gas Chromatography. The study was based on the selectivity, linearity, accuracy, precision and recovery of the analytical method using the glass fiber/ZnO. The effect of the salt addition, extraction temperature and extraction, desorption and incubated time on the analytical response were evaluated too. Good linear dynamic range was observed from the method quantification limits with correlation coefficients better than 0.9900 for all compounds. The method was accurate with recoveries ranging from 95,00 to 105,00%. and the range of linearity observed was 30 ng/mL to 500 ng/mL to trichloromethane, 20 ng/mL to 250 ng/mL to dichlorobromomethane and dibromochloromethane and 10 ng/mL to 100 ng/mL to tribromethane. The method is also robust and has great potential to be used in a trihalomethane determination.
