Gas
Chromatography (GC) is a universal separation technique applicable to complex
mixtures. The technique uses differences in volatility and analyte-column
interaction to achieve the desired separation. GC is commonly used to
analyze mixtures for identification and quantification. Various ancillary
GC techniques, such as headspace/GC-MS, pyrolysis/GC-MS, and other multidisciplinary
techniques, are available to solve client problems. GC techniques are cost
effective and encompass a wide range of analytical problems. Assay and
trace level analyses are achieved with minimal sample preparation. A wide
variety of special detectors is available for quantification and specific
identification of various classes of compounds.

- Quantification
by direct injection or headspace/gas chromatography to determine composition
of solvent blends and additives in manufactured products.
- Identification
and quantification of residual monomers and solvents in product formulations,
coated films, and solid materials.
- On-line
monitoring of reactions or emissions for kinetic studies, emission testing,
and specific environmental surveys.
- Trace-level analysis of analytes for industrial hygiene surveys, product contamination,
environmental studies, and waste analysis.
- Pyrolysis/GC
and pyrolysis/GC-MS for identification of thermal decomposition products
of polymeric materials.
