Recent Applications of Mass Spectrometry in Paint Analysis

Daniela Hutanu, Alisa G Woods and Costel C Darie

Mass Spectrometry (MS) has wide applications in many fields, from biology and medicine and from chemistry and food industry. MS has also been successfully applied to the analysis of heavy metals, small molecules or large, polymeric molecules, and this analysis could be performed either by analyzing one molecule at the time or by analyzing simultaneously complex or very complex mixtures. Here we focus on several applications of MS in the analysis of paint, artist’s paints, and powder coatings components reported recently in the literature.
