Refers To: Peter Kusch, Gerd Knupp, Marcus Hergarten, Marian Kozupa, Maria Majchrzak: Solid-phase extraction-gas chromatography and solid-phase extraction-gas chromatography–mass spectrometry determination of corrosion inhibiting long-chain primary alkyl amines in chemical treatment of boiler water in water-steam systems of power plants. - Journal of Chromatography A, Volume 1113, Issues 1–2, 28 April 2006, Pages 198-205
Gas chromatography with flame-ionization detection (FID) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) with electron impact ionization (EI) and chemical ionization (PCI and NCI) were successfully used for separation and identification of commercially available longchain primary alkyl amines. The investigated compounds were used as corrosion inhibiting and antifouling agents in a water-steam circuit of energy systems in the power industry. Solidphase extraction (SPE) with octadecyl bonded silica (C18) sorbents followed by gas chromatography were used for quantification of the investigated Primene JM-T™ alkyl amines in boiler water, condensate and superheated steam samples from the power plant. Amine formulations from Kotamina group favor formation of protective layers on internal surfaces and keep them free from corrosion and scale. Alkyl amines contained in those formulations both render the environment alkaline and limit the corrosion impact of ionic and gaseous impurities by formation of protective layers. Moreover, alkyl amines limit scaling on heating surfaces of boilers and in turbine, ensuring failure-free operation. Application of alkyl amine formulation enhances heat exchange during boiling and condensation processes. Alkyl amines with branched structure are more thermally stable than linear alkyl amines, exhibit better adsorption and effectiveness of surface shielding. As a result, application of thermostable long-chain branched alkyl amines increases the efficiency of anti-corrosive protection. Moreover, the concentration of ammonia content in water and in steam was also considerably decreased.
Analytical pyrolysis technique hyphenated to gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS) has extended the range of possible tools for characterization of synthetic polymers/copolymers. Pyrolysis involves thermal fragmentation of the analytical sample at elevated temperature between 500 and 1400 °C. In the presence of an inert gas, reproducible decomposition products characteristic for the original polymer/copolymer sample are formed. The pyrolysis products are chromatographically separated by using a fused silica capillary column and subsequently identified by interpretation of the obtained mass spectra or by using mass spectra libraries. The analytical technique eliminate the need for pre-treatment by performing analyses directly on the solid or liquid polymer sample.
In this paper, application examples of the analytical pyrolysis hyphenated to gas chromatography/mass spectrometry for the identification of different polymeric materials in the plastic and automotive industry, dentistry and occupational safety are demonstrated. For the first time results of identification of commercially light-curing dental filling material and a car wrapping foil by pyrolysis-GC/MS are presented.
Gas chromatography with simultaneous flame-ionization detection (FID) and a nitrogen-phosphorus detection (NPD) as well as gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) has been used to characterize some long-chain primary alkyl amines and alkyl diamines after derivatization with trifluoroacetic anhydride (TFAA).

Analysis of Synthetic Polymers and Copolymers by Pyrolysis- Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry
(2005)
Structural analysis and the study of degradation properties are important in order to understand and improve performance characteristics of synthetic polymers and copolymers in many industrial applications. Polymers/copolymers are inherently difficult to analyze because of their high molecular weight and lack of volatility. Traditionally, various analytical techniques are used to characterize polymers/copolymers including physical testing (rheological testing), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, size-exclusion chromatography (SEC)/gel permeation chromatography (GPC), and mass spectrometry (MS). Often, time consuming sample preparation, including hydrolysis, dissolution, or derivatization is needed before analysis.
The analytical pyrolysis technique hyphenated to gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) has extended the range of possible tools for the characterization of synthetic polymers and copolymers. Pyrolysis involves thermal fragmentation of the analytical sample at temperatures of 500–1400 °C. In the presence of an inert gas, reproducible decomposition products characteristic for the original polymer or copolymer sample are formed. The pyrolysis products are chromatographically separated using a fused-silica capillary column and are subsequently identified by interpretation of the obtained mass spectra or by using mass spectra libraries. The analytical technique eliminates the need for pretreatment by performing analyses directly on the solid or liquid polymer sample. In this article, application examples of analytical pyrolysis hyphenated to GC–MS for the identification of different polymeric materials in the plastic and automotive industry, dentistry, and occupational safety are demonstrated. For the first time, results of identification of commercial light-curing dental filling material and a car wrapping foil by pyrolysis–GC–MS are presented.

Die analytische Pyrolyse ist ein universelles Analysenverfahren für hochmolekulare organische Verbindungen. Unter Pyrolyse (griech.: Pyros = Feuer, Lyso = zersetzen) versteht man die chemische Umsetzung von Substanzen mittels Wärme. Bei der Pyrolyse von hochmolekularen Substanzen handelt es sich um eine thermische Zersetzung unter kontrollierten Bedingungen in niedermolekulare Verbindungen. Die niedermolekularen Pyrolyseprodukte werden dann den herkömmlichen Analysenverfahren unterworfen, welche Rückschlüsse auf chemische Zusammensetzung, Struktur und Eigenschaften der Ausgangsstoffe erlauben.
Gas chromatography with flame-ionization detection (FID) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) has been used for structure elucidation of long-chain primary n-alkyl amines after derivatization with trifluoroacetic anhydride (TFAA). Electron impact ionization- (EI) and positive chemical ionization- (PCI) mass spectra of trifluoroacetylated derivatives of the identified nalkyl amines are presented. The corrosion inhibiting n-alkyl amines were applied in the investigation of a new anticorrosive and antifouling formulation for water-steam circuit of energy systems in the power industry. The presented results are part of an EU-funded international collaboration with partners from research institutes and industry from Poland, Lithuania, Romania, France and Germany (EUREKA project BOILTREAT E!2426).
Die analytische Pyrolyse ist eine universell einsetzbare Messtechnik zur Untersuchung von hoch molekularen organischen Verbindungen. Bei der Pyrolyse der hochmolekularen organischen Ver bindungen entstehen durch thermische Zersetzung bei 500-1400°C in einem Inertgasstrom nieder molekulare Verbindungen. Diese niedermolekularen Pyrolyse-Produkte werden dann den her kömmlichen Analyseverfahren wie GC-FID, GC/MS oder GC/FTIR unterworfen, die Rück schlüsse auf chemische Zusammensetzung und Struktur der Ausgangsstoffe erlauben. Die Festphasen mikroextraktion (SPME) ist eine lösungsmittelfreie Mikroextraktionstechnik. Im Headspace-Modus (HS) wurde SPME in den letzten Jahren für die Bestimmung von Rest mono meren und gesund heits gefährdenden, leichtflüchtigen organischen Verbindungen (VOCs) in Kunststoffen verwendet.
Der zunehmende Einsatz der Polymerwerkstoffe in der Automobilindustrie erfordert empfindliche und zuverlässige Methoden zur Analyse der verwendeten Stoffe. Bei Schadenanalysen an Komponenten in Kraftfahrzeugen stehen oftmals nur wenige Informationen über das Bauteil selbst, wie die chemische Zusammensetzung, die Temperaturbeständigkeit, mögliche Kontaminierungs stoffe oder mechanische Eigenschaften zur Verfügung. Der Schadensbereich ist meistens be grenzt und nicht immer homogen. Zur Klärung des Schadens stehen häufig nur kleine Proben mengen zur Verfügung, die jedoch für die Erkennung der Schadensursache von großer Bedeutung sein können.
Die Wiederverwertung von Kunststoffen (Kunststoffrecycling) kann in die werkstoffliche (materielle), die rohstoffliche (chemische) und die energetische Verwertung unterteilt werden. Beim werkstofflichen Kunststoffrecycling werden sortenreine Kunststoffreste gewaschen, gemahlen und von der Kunststoff verarbeitenden Industrie als Rohmaterial eingesetzt. Der chemische Aufbau des erhaltenen Werkstoffs (Re-Granulats) bleibt erhalten. Bei der rohstofflichen Verwertung werden Kunststoffreste zu Monomeren zurückgeführt. Die erhaltenen Monomere werden dann bei der Herstellung neuer Kunststoffe verwendet. Bei der energetischen Verwertung werden die Kunststoffreste der Zement- oder Stahlindustrie als Energieträger zugeführt.
