Inducing Thermal Degradation of Molecules
« on: November 04, 2019, 03:50:06 PM »
Is anyone here familiar with current techniques by which molecules are thermally decomposed before analysis? Either to analyze the fragments or to measure the thermal stability of the molecules. What are the most common and/or the most effective ways to conduct these types of temperature studies? I have heard of pyrolysis devices being used in tandem with GC-MS. Are there more techniques such as this? I really appreciate any help.

This is verbatim what was posted and discussed here recently. Are you the same person?

Actually there was around 20 accounts of spammers using the same technique, thank you for spotting one of them, it made detection of all others possible :)
