Sample Procedure |
The pyrolysis technique is commonly used in the infrared identification of polymers and results in spectra of both the volatile and non-volatile pyrolyzed fractions the polymer under investigation. It can be used by researchers to identify principal polymer types. The volatile (Vapor Phase) and non-volatile (Condensed Phase) IR spectra resulting from the pyrolysis of this sample are available in SpectraBase as HDPE 290B1 - Controlled Pyrolyzate (Vapor Phase) and HDPE 290B1 - Controlled Pyrolyzate (Condensed Phase). |
