Evaluation of Plastic Materials Analysis of Additives in Plastic
Polymer materials are often formulated using different types of additives depending on the grade or manufacturer. Analyzing a
sample extract generally requires separating the additives from the polymers. Conventionally, they are separated by solvent extraction
or precipitation methods, but that requires time-consuming pretreatment, including thoroughly washing the equipment used for
pretreatment. The thermal desorption GC/MS method described below improves productivity by facilitating quick analysis and utilizing
disposable pretreatment equipment (ECO cup).
