Curie-Point-Pyrolyser provides analysis of rubber by pyrolysis GC/MS.


Routine analysis is said to require automation due to the increasing demand for shorter analysis times, higher throughput and cost reduction, according to according to

The Curie-Point-Pyrolyser can be installed or removed from the GC in just a few minutes, according to the company. In this way, users are said to be able to easily change, reliably and safely, between pyrolysis and liquid injection.

Despite the power of modern analytical instruments, techniques of analysis such as gas chromatography gas chromatography (GC)

 materials and chemicals, according to the company. Sample preparation is said to require a lot of time and expertise, particularly when dealing with small sample amounts.

Pyrolysis is a well-established method for the analysis of complex non-volatile, chemical materials and provides a time saving alternative, according to the company. With pyrolysis techniques, it is not necessary to perform sample preparation. In addition, small amounts of sample (micrograms) may be sufficient for an analysis.

Pyrolysis temperature may be controlled by selection of the composition of the sample carrier.

Applications for pyrolysis include rubber, polymers, copolymers, elastomers, synthetics, resin, pigments and other materials.
