Abstract:
Petroleum samples are complex materials that can be difficult to analyze by traditional methods like gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) that use only electron ionization (EI). Furthermore, given the complexity of this material, it can be difficult to determine differences between samples when measured. In this work, a high-resolution time-of-flight mass spectrometer (HRTOFMS) equipped with a thermal modulator GCxGC system was used to analyze diesel samples by using an electron ionization/field ionization/field desorption (EI/FI/FD) combination ion source. Additionally, new software capabilities were used to compare diesel samples from different vendors. The results for this work will be presented.
