Mass Spectrometry of Polymers by Giorgio Montaudo, Robert P. Lattimer

By Giorgio Montaudo, Robert P. Lattimer

Mass Spectrometry (MS) has speedily develop into an imperative device in polymer research, and sleek MS at the present time enhances in lots of methods the structural information supplied by way of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and Infrared (IR) tools. contemporary advances have sparked a growing to be curiosity during this box and proven a necessity for a precis of development made and effects achieved.

Mass Spectrometry of Polymers successfully fills this want. The dialogue starts by way of introducing MS intimately, offering a ancient point of view and a overview of recent instrumentation and techniques. The textual content then makes a speciality of mathematical suggestions and useful algorithms utilized in a few of the significant quantitative polymer functions of MS, delivering a skillful prologue to polymer characterization innovations. specific chapters keep on with, describing the main correct functions of MS to the research of polymers and the recommendations at the moment employed.

Authored by way of the world over well-known specialists from academia and undefined, Mass Spectrometry of Polymers is the single state of the art paintings on hand that bargains systematically with this quickly rising self-discipline, and may be priceless to either newbies and skilled practitioners in polymer MS.

18 Stability conditions, expressed in terms of U vs. V plots, for three ions with masses m1 < m2 < m3. The U and V values leading to stable trajectories through the quadrupole lie within the area defined by the V axis and the solid lines (m1), dotted lines (m2), or bullet lines (m3). , with the ratio U/V kept constant; the slope of this line determines the resolution. Gradually increasing U and V successively brings ions m1, m2, and m3 through stable trajectories. If U = 0, the scan line overlaps with the V axis; the resolution is zero, and all ions pass the quadrupole.
