Pyrolysis/GC of Polyolefins

#18a A Comparison of Polyolefins by Pyrolysis GC Application Note Pyrolysis Theory- Polyolefins Author: T. Wampler Pyrolysis gas chromatography is a simple technique which has been utilized by scientists for almost three decades. The pro­cess of pyrolysis involves the liberation…

#7a Analysis of Polyolefins by Pyrolysis GC Application Note Pyrolysis Theory Author: T. Wampler Pyrolysis GC is a quick and straightforward way of analyzing solid materials by gas chromatog­raphy. Since most solids do not have an appreciable volatility at GC…

Degredation Mechanisms - Random Scission Application Note Theory During pyrolysis, polymeric materials may degrade via a number of mechanisms which are generally grouped into three classes - random scission, depo­lymerization, and side group elimination. Random scission results from the production…

#4a Thermal Degradation of Polymers in Air Application Note Pyrolysis in reactant gas True pyrolysis is the thermal degradation of a substance in an inert atmosphere so that the resulting pyrolysates may be studied, and related to the orig­inal sample.…
