Characterisation of permanent markers by pyrolysis gas chromatography–mass spectrometry

Abstract: Pyrolysis gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (PyGC-MS) was used as a rapid method for the characterization of permanent marker ink. Twenty-four samples of various colours purchased from different manufacturers were characterised. Four main typologies of polymer-binding medium could be distinguished on the basis of the pyrolysis products, and differentiation between permanent markers of different manufacturers could be accomplished. For some permanent marker samples, PyGC-MS analysis allowed pigment identific… Show more

“…Typical design of a marker pen includes the tip inserted at its head, and an ink barrel loaded in a plastic casing. As shown in Figure b, the writing color of the marker pen is decided by the choice of pigment filled in the ink barrel . Tip of the marker is a long stick which is porous and sponge‐like material, protruding slightly out as shown in Figure c.…”

“…The corresponding UV–vis absorption spectra of these colored films are shown in Figure e, which exhibit broad absorption bands covering the entire visible range. This kind of absorption characteristics is typical of phthalocyanine‐based pigments as they are being used in the commercial marker pens to impart desired colors (spectra are shown with the respective colors of the ink, see Figure e) . Further, in order to probe the UV absorption characteristics of these pigments, solutions of different colored (black, red, and blue) inks were made by dissolving the inks in ethanol solvent, and their characteristic UV–vis absorption spectra were recorded (see Figure S1, Supporting Information).…”

“…While writing with a ball point pen, the surface roughness of the substrate (most commonly paper) causes the ball to rotate within the tip delivering ink from the reservoir onto the substrate . Commercial inks used in pens are composed of complex formulations of dyes, pigments, and glues or polymeric binders to meet the desired writing requirement . The simplicity and versatility of the pen has inspired researchers to pursue the development of conductive inks for use in directly writing electronics onto inexpensive paper substrates .…”
