Page iii Preface Analytical pyrolysis is the study of molecules by applying enough thermal energy to cause bond cleavage, and then analyzing the resulting fragments by gas chromatography, mass spectrometry, or infrared spectroscopy. Pyrolysis has been employed for the analysis of organic molecules for most of this century. It was initially connected with investigations of vapor-phase hydrocarbons, and later became a routine technique for analyzing fuel sources and natural and synthetic polymers. Current applications include analysis of trace evidence samples in forensic laboratories, evaluation of new composite formulations, authentication and conservation of artworks, identification of microorganisms, and the study of complex biological and ecological systems. This book is intended to be a practical guide to the application of pyrolysis techniques to various samples and sample types. To that end, general and theoretical considerations, including instrumentation and degradation mechanisms, have been consolidated in the first two chapters. The balance of the book describes the use of pyrolysis as a tool in specific fields. Synthetic polymers, forensic materials, and other samples with a long history of analysis by pyrolysis are covered here. In addition, we have been pleased to see some new areas of study, such as the analysis of surfactants, antiquities, and environmental materials, and these topics are presented as well.

Page iv The chapters examine the scope of work based on pyrolysis in particular fields of analysis and give specific examples of methods currently being used for the examination of representative samples. This book is intended to serve as a starting point for analysts who are adding pyrolysis to their array of analytical techniques, by providing concrete examples and suggesting additional reading. I would like to thank all of the authors for their contributions. Each is actively involved in scientific pursuits, and the time that they have taken away from their busy schedules to contribute to this project was valuable and greatly appreciated. THOMAS P. WAMPLER
