Pyrolysis gas chromatography of coating materials – a bibliography

Mass Spectrometry of Polymers and Polymer Surfaces

“…Galipo and co-workers were able to follow the progress of polymerization of a polyimide (Ciba-Geigy Matrimid 5292) by identifying characteristic pyrolates of both the reactants and the products. More information on the pyrolysis GC of coating materials is in the recent review by Haken …”

“…More information on the pyrolysis GC of coating materials is in the recent review by Haken. 39 Controlling the heat delivered to a pyrolysis mass spectrometry experiment can also create higher mass pyrolates. These higher mass pyrolates can then be analyzed by techniques such as MALDI or ESI (both MALDI and ESI will be discussed below).…”

Microplastics Detection Using Pyrolysis-GC/MS-Based Methods

“…To date, no application of laser Py-GC/MS has been recorded for the characterization of microplastics, the use of laser having only been described in the context of the analysis of PS by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight (MALDI-TOF) (Schirinzi et al 2019;Lin et al 2020). Haken (1999) presents two key parameters to be addressed to perform reproducible analysis with pyrolysis coupled to gas chromatography when studying tiny particle with a mass below 1 mg, which is the case for almost a majority of MP.…”

Thermal decomposition of acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesives

“…Pyrolysis is a well-known and successful method used either analytically or to recover monomers from waste polymers. For the last 50 years, many groups of materials have been analyzed by classic pyrolysis and variations thereof 4 . Pyrolysis methods are typically either on-line (where decomposition and analysis are conducted in one device) or off-line (decomposition and analysis proceed using separate systems).…”
