Abstract
One of the simplest of analytical procedures would seem to be that of the combustion of a test portion and the weighing of the residue. In the literal sense this is of course true but in many cases merely weighing the residue yields insufficient information, and the ash is the starting material for further analyses, as in the determination of trace metals. In carrying out an ash determination on a compounded polymer the aim is to pyrolyse the polymer, distilling off liquid and vapour, preferably without combustion, and, only when this is complete, to continue with oxidative heating.
