Polymer Characterisation by Pyrolysis GC

Application overview

Pyrolysis GC supports comparative and compositional studies of polymers by separating controlled thermal-decomposition products; identification requires appropriate references or mass-spectral evidence.

Workflow questions

• What is the sample matrix and how is it collected or stored?
• Which analytes and concentration range must be covered?
• Which official or validated method controls preparation and detection?
• What blanks, calibration checks, recovery tests and carryover controls are required?

Configuration note

The sample-preparation device, chromatograph, detector, columns, gases and data system must be reviewed as one analytical chain.

No detection limit, recovery, repeatability or standards compliance is claimed without method-specific evidence.
