Informationen zum Autor Serban C. Moldoveanu was Senior Principal Scientist at R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, USA, and retired at the end of 2023. His research activity was focused on various aspects of chromatography including method development for the analysis by GC/MS, HPLC, and LC/MS/MS of natural products and cigarette smoke. He has also performed research on pyrolysis of a variety of polymers and small molecules. He has written over 150 publications in peer reviewed journals, eleven books, and several chapter contributions. He is a member of the editorial board of the Journal of Analytical Methods in Chemistry and of Frontiers in Chemistry . Zusammenfassung A follow-up to "Analytical Pyrolysis of Natural Organic Polymers", this book focuses on practical applications of analytical pyrolysis in synthetic organic polymer identification and characterization. It is suitable for both researchers and chemists working in analytical chemistry or in synthetic polymers.
