Discover how Bruker’s innovative FTIR gas analyzers are simplifying and accelerating the process of analyzing gaseous mixtures. Learn about the MATRIX II-MG Series and OMEGA 5 Gas Analysis System, offering unmatched dynamic range and user-friendly interfaces.

Phthalates are globally regulated, and several traditional analytical techniques can be used for their identification. Many of these traditional techniques require sample pretreatment, are time-consuming, and make it difficult to achieve accuracy in quantification. Manufacturers have switched formulations to include unregulated phthalates, which are difficult to differentiate from regulated phthalates, due to having similar retention times and MS spectra. Thermal desorption-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry is an accurate and automated method for phthalate analysis and eliminates sample pretreatments and solvent extractions.

Sources of PFAS in the air can be industrial activity, disposal of PFAS containing materials or simply emissions from PFAS containing products. Monitoring of these different environments and matrices is commonly carried out using GC based techniques for other VOCs, so how does monitoring of PFAS differ?  Join this webinar to hear about how techniques already broadly used for VOC monitoring can be successfully applied to PFAS measurements from air and materials.

During this webinar, we’ll cover the theory of FTIR and Raman spectroscopies and why they work so well in the regulated analytical laboratory. Learn what makes them ideal tools for verifying product quality, identifying unknown contaminants, and reverse engineering competitive products.

During this webinar, we’ll explore how the powerful Pyrolysis-GC/MS technique can be used to quantify and identify microplastics in air samples. Our partner, Frontier Laboratories will share the cutting-edge research and the tools that were used, including the multi-mode, micro-furnace pyrolyzer, and a powerful microplastic software engine.

It’s time to take your GC/MS analysis further! Join us as we highlight the enabling accessories and peripherals that support and amplify the analytical power of the Frontier multi-functional pyrolysis system. This is your chance to learn how the accessories work, how they can be used with one another, and how they can level-up your lab’s routine and specialized analyses.

See how Pyrolysis-GC/MS has become a vital tool for reverse engineering and deconstruction of high-performance materials, especially for understanding their Composition-Property-Processing (CPP) relationship. We’ll be joined by Dr. Rigoberto Advincula, an industry-recognized leader in the research of advanced materials, polymers, and nanomaterials. Leveraging his most-recent research data and insights, we’ll demonstrate how Pyrolysis-GC/MS completes deformulation faster with augmented data and interpretation.

Let’s tackle the science of polymer analysis using the power of spectroscopy. Guest speaker, Dr. Tom Tague will explore a number of interesting topics, including polymer characterization, polymer research, and outline the various reasons why infrared and Raman instruments are ideal tools for both a lab and industrial setting.

Helium is increasingly expensive and difficult to source as a gas chromatography carrier gas. Switching to hydrogen carrier gas is the obvious alternative to eliminate this dependency on helium for GC and also thermal desorption-GC-MS. Join us on September 28th where guest speaker, Dr. Aaron Davies of Markes International, will explore the practicalities and benefits of using hydrogen in place of helium to support your thermal desorption-GC/MS analysis.

Guest speaker, Connor Beach from Activated Research Company, walks through the problems experienced by many analysts in environmental testing lab: battling against the limitations of traditional methanizers. During this webinar, learn about improved techniques for volatile organic compound analysis using GC-FID: Jetanizer and Polyarc.

This webinar offers a great overview of the Frontier Tandem µ-Reactor, a powerful system for evaluating a variety of catalysts in a short period of time. Products formed from the gaseous contact reactions occurring in the reactor, which contains a catalyst, can be analyzed online using GC/MS. Session presented by guest speaker, Rojin Belganeh of Frontier Lab Americas.

It’s time to take your engineering experiments to the next level with the power of real-time. We’re excited to be joined by webinar speakers from Diablo Analytical, Dr. Terry Ramus and Dr. Scott Hein, who will explore the requirements of mass spectrometry for real-time analysis.
