Pyrolysis-Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry of Polymeric Materials

Structural analysis and the study of degradation properties are important in order to understand and improve performance characteristics of synthetic polymers and copolymers in many industrial applications. Polymers/copolymers cannot be analyzed in their normal state by traditional gas chromatography (GC) because of high molecular weight and lack of volatility. However, by heating these macromo...

Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry

Gas chromatography (GC) is a widely applied technique in many branches of science and technology. For over half a century, GC has played a fundamental role in determining how many components and in what proportion they exist in a mixture. However, the ability to establish the nature and chemical structure of these separated and quantified compounds is ambiguous and reduced, and requires a spect...
