Polymer Structural Characterization Service Based on MALDI-TOF MS

STEMart offers advanced Polymer Structural Characterization Services using MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry (Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization-Time of Flight MS), an industry-leading technique for the detailed analysis of polymer structures. In our laboratory, MALDI-TOF MS allows for precise identification and characterization of polymers by determining their molecular weight distributions, end groups, and structural components. This powerful technology supports research and development in materials science, industrial manufacturing, and polymer chemistry.

MALDI-TOF MS works by ionizing polymer samples with a laser, followed by the detection of ions based on their mass-to-charge ratios. This technique is especially effective for characterizing large molecules such as polymers, as it provides detailed insights into molecular weight distribution and polymer composition. The high sensitivity of MALDI-TOF MS enables accurate structural analysis even for complex polymers, making it ideal for both research applications and quality control in polymer production.

Leveraging the capabilities of MALDI-TOF MS, STEMart offers a comprehensive range of polymer structural characterization services. Our expertise ensures that you receive accurate and actionable data to support polymer development, research, and product testing.
