Beschreibung
Readers will find many practical applications of pyrolysis-GC/MS as well as R&D usage in this newly revised and expanded edition. Detailed experimental descriptions for the identification of synthetic polymers and copolymers are included. This volume presents the current state of analytical pyrolysis, and contains full identification of several classes of polymers/copolymers and biopolymers that readers will find helpful. Structures and functions of various types of pyrolyzers are explored, as well as the results of the pyrolysis–gas chromatographic–mass spectrometric identification of synthetic polymers/copolymers and biopolymers at 700°C.
Practical applications of this hyphenated technique, detailing the analysis of microplastics, failure analysis in the automotive industry and solutions for technological problems are provided. Numerous practical applications of pyrolysis-GC/MS, for industrial and R&D usage, will be of benefit to Chemists and Engineers, as well as for students of Chemistry and Polymer Sciences.

Review of the First Edition:'The instrumentation and equipment summary information was comprehensive and thorough, without becoming bogged down in technical specification and theoretical detail. I particularly liked the summary format which the author applied to each of the referenced pristine and blended polymer types. Presenting an overview of polymer structure, characteristics, synthesis routes and application in addition to the pyrolytic fragmentation pattern information, this book should be extremely useful to anyone working in the field of analytical characterization of polymeric materials.' - Don WrightManager/ConsultantGeorgetown, Texas
Key Features:
- Analytical Pyrolysis–GC/MS proved to be a valuable hyphenated technique for the analysis and identification of synthetic organic polymeric materials, their additives and for the analysis of biopolymers. This technique allows the direct analysis of very small sample amounts (5–200 µg) without the need of time-consuming sample preparation or after a simple sample derivatization. Pyrolysis–GC/MS can be applied to research and development of new materials, quality control, characterization and competitor product evaluation, medicine, biology and biotechnology, geology, airspace, and environmental analysis to forensic purposes or conservation and restoration of cultural heritage. These applications cover analysis and identification of polymers/copolymers and additives in components of automobiles, tires, packaging materials, textile fibres, coatings, adhesives, half-finished products for electronics, paints, or varnishes, lacquers, leather, paper, or wood products, food, pharmaceuticals, surfactants, and fragrances. Pyrolysis–GC/MS allows the confirmation of the source of a failed product, the identification of contaminants causing failure, the competitive analysis, as well as overcoming a problem in product development or quality control. The obtained analytical results are then used for troubleshooting and remedial action of the technological process
- Renewable biopolymers from different natural sources have attracted much attention in the recent past years because of their use in different areas such as food, cosmetics, medicines, fuels and construction materials. Pyrolysis–GC/MS is highly suitable for practical studies of biopolymers. In recent years, this analytical technique has found wide application in environmental analysis to study the chemical composition and quantification of micro(nano)plastics
