Ion mobility (IM) separation with high resolution accurate MS extends substance identification and characterization capabilities to a new dimension. IM permits to separate isomeric compounds effectively. We applied Trapped Ion Mobility Separation (TIMS) on the timsTOFTM instrument. However, there are few studies using ion mobility for polymer samples or in the chemical industry field. Therefore, in this research, isomer separation capacity of PET oligomer was investigated using LC-TIMS-TOF-MS.
