Analysis of Compounded Rubber
The chemical composition of analysis of rubber materials are important since the type and number of additives influence the properties and performance characteristics of rubber materials. Here, we demonstrate how Py-GCMS can be used to analyse compounded rubber for its additives and polymer information. For more details, please read our technical note
Analysis of Brominated Flame Retardant in a WastePlastics
Brominated flame retardants are to be controlledunder the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS directive), GC analysisis generally conducted after solvent extraction, although, it involvescumbersome operations. Therefore, simpler analytical technique needed tobe developed. Here, the analysis of ecabromodiphenyl ether (DeBDE), amost commonly used brominated flame retardant is achieved by thermaldesorption (TD)-GC/MS technique.
