Reviews
the chemistry behind pyrolysis mechanisms, degradation mechanisms,
and essential instrumentation considerations Contains detailed
analytical data
for polymers that can easily be compared
with the user抯 own experimental data and analyses Re-examines methods in areas with a long history of analysis by pyrolysis including microorganisms, coatings and adhesives, textiles, synthetic polymers, cosmetics, and forensic evidence Highlights new areas of application including surfactants, museum pieces, and environmental materials Provides guidance for interpreting data, particularly for product comparison or presenting forensic evidence in trials Adds new sample pyrograms for 23 materials including tobacco, automobile paint, and packaging polymers
Analytical pyrolysis allows scientists to use routine laboratory instrumentation for analyzing complex, opaque, or insoluble samples more effectively than other analytical techniques alone.
Applied Pyrolysis Handbook, Second Editionis a practical guide to the application of pyrolysis techniques to various samples and sample types for a diversity of fields including microbiology, forensic science, industrial research, and environmental analysis.
This second edition incorporates recent technological advances that increase the technique抯 sensitivity to trace elements, improve its reproducibility, and expand its applicability. The book reviews the types of instrumentation available to perform. pyrolysis and offers guidance for interfacing instruments and integrating other analytical techniques, including gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. Fully updated with new sample pyrograms, figures, references, and real-world examples, this edition also highlights new areas of application including surfactants, historical artifacts, and environmental materials.
This book illustrates how the latest advances make pyrolysis a practical, cost-effective, reliable, and flexible alternative for increasingly complex sample analyses.Applied Pyrolysis Handbook, Second Editionis an essential, one-stop guide for determining if pyrolysis meets application-specific needs as well as performing pyrolysis and handling the data obtained.
