Finding a relationship between the composition and the emulsifying character of asphaltenes through FTICR-MS

ABSTRACT In this work, n-heptane insoluble fractions (asphaltenes) from six crude oils were analyzed by means of Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR MS) using both positive Atmospheric Pressure Photo Ionization (+) APPI and negative Electro-Spray Ionization (-) ESI in...
