8 Analysis of petroleum-related samples by soft ionization/high-resolution mass spectrometry
-
Roman S. Borisov
Abstract
This chapter considers the achievements in applying the various methods of “soft” ionization in high- and ultrahigh-resolution mass spectrometry to investigate polar, low-volatility nonpolar, and high molecular petroleum components for refining and further their processing into useful products. High-resolution method is of particular importance as it allows determining the mass of ions with very high accuracy and establishing the elemental composition of the detected compounds. In turn, “soft” ionization methods operating at atmospheric pressure or permitting the desorption/ionization of solid samples are very suitable for the analysis of heavy petroleum fractions. The capabilities and disadvantages of existing approaches and instrumental techniques are discussed.
