TI  - LCMS/MS and TOF-SIMS identification of the color bodies on the surface of a 
      polymer.

AB  - The source of discoloration on a polymer surface can often be identified by 
      washing the surface of the discolored polymer to collect the color bodies, then 
      analyzing the washings using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LCMS), with 
      an in-line ultraviolet (UV) detector set at the optimum wavelength for the 
      particular color bodies. A reference sample having no discoloration is also 
      analyzed in the same way. In this paper, results from this methodology are 
      compared with direct time of flight-secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF-SIMS) 
      analysis of a discolored polymer. The benefits and shortcomings of each 
      methodology are discussed.
