A new method for the determination of reliable molecular weight averages (MW) and polydispersity index (MWD) values for polydisperse polymers, directly analyzing their matrix-assisted laser/desorption ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectra, is reported. Our success is due to the concerte

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS) is shown to give inaccurate results for the analysis of low molecular weight ethoxylate polymers. It is demonstrated that when the degree of ethoxylation is low (n < 9), MALDI-TOFMS produces substantially high
The determination of molecular mass (MM) data for polydisperse polymers by size exclusion chromatography matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (SEC/MALDI-TOF) involves the fractionation of samples through an analytical SEC. Selected fractions are then analysed by MALDI-TOF and t
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry was used for qualitative and quantitative end-group analysis of a small molecular weight polyester, poly(2-butyl-2-ethyl-1,3-propylene phthalate). The presence of carboxyl-terminated linear and cyclic polyester
