Great tool for polymer analysis & deformulation.
Polymer analysis
The 3030D pyrolyzer (coupled to a GC/MS) has been an excellent tool for polymer analysis. It is a microfurnace-style pyrolyzer, which I have found to give more reproducible results than the resistance wire coil style of pyrolyzer that I previously used. This consistency is especially important when overlaying/comparing a series of polymer samples and looking for subtle differences in chromatograms. Support from Frontier has been great, they have been very responsive to my inquiries. A solid state relay that controls the interface heater for our unit failed following an undervoltage situation in the power supply ($3K price tag to repair), so I would recommend using high-quality surge protection.

Multi-Shot pyrolyzer (EGA / PY-3030D) is the most capable model in the Multi-functional Pyrolyzer series. This product features high performance and ease of use, from the basic performance of the heating furnace to the details of the control software.
By combining with optional accessory devices such as automatic analyzer (Auto-Shot Sampler), MicroJet Cryo-trap, Selective Sampler, Carrier Gas Selector, so on, the product supports a wide variety of applications. In addition, these operations can be automated, greatly enhancing productivity.
1. Significant improvement in furnace performance (rapid heating/rapid cooling):
Rapid heating and cooling is achieved by employing a ceramic heater with low thermal mass. This excellent heater features a wide temperature range: from ambient to 1050 ºC.
2. High performance and high reliability (pyrogram, inertness, analysis of high boiling point compounds):
The performance is guaranteed to meet the stated specifications such as the thermogram of evolved gas analysis and the pyrogram of instantaneous pyrolysis analysis.
3. Any sample form for analysis:
The evolved gas analysis, thermal desorption, flash pyrolysis, double-shot, and heart-cut EGA-GC/MS methods can be used to characterize polymer samples from multiple viewpoints.
