The results of various analytical pyrolysls techniques wlth on-llne and off-llne detectlon have been examlned wlth respect to characteristlclty and contents of Information, using chltln [poly- (1+ 4)+ 3-~-2-acet amldo-2-deoxyglucopyranose] as a model polymer. Curie-polnt pyrolysis- low-energy electron impact mass spectrometry (cPy-EIMS), using normal and preheated telescopic glass tube sample holders, was applied, as well as Curle-point pyrolysis-gas ...
