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. This record contains the volatile (Vapor Phase) IR spectrum resulting from the pyrolysis of HDPE 240B2. The IR spectrum of the non-volatile (Condensed Phase) fraction resulting from the pyrolysis of HDPE 240B2 is HDPE 240B2 - Controlled Pyrolyzate (Condensed Phase). The Temperature in this record is the temperature of the pyrolysis. |
