Compositional determination of 2,6‐dimethyl‐1,4‐phenylene oxide and styreen hompolymer blends by infrared spectrometry and pyrolysis gas chromatography

摘要

AbstractCompositional analysis of 2,6‐dimethyl‐1,4‐phenylene oxide (PPO) and styrene homopolymer blends was accomplished using infrared spectrometry and pyrolysis gas chromatography. In infrared measurements the 1030/700 cm−1absorption ratio provides percent PPO in the blends within ±3 of the actual value but with a σ of ±10. In pyrolysis GC measurements, four peaks resulting from the fragmentation of the PPO molecule have been investigated for quantitation. One of these peaks provides results with ±2 of the PPO present with a σ of 7 when the percent PPO in the blend
