Non-Targeted Analysis Details
Non-quantitative identification of compounds produced in thermolysis of fluoropolymers (PTFE, PCTFE, and ECTFE). Positively identified halogenated acids (e.g., PFOA), environmental precursors to the acids, and halogenated alkanes. Tentatively identified novel fluorinated acids with ether functionalities (pg. 760, Figure 3).
