Discriminating between the dissociative photoionization and thermal decomposition products of ethylene glycol by synchrotron VUV photoionization mass spectrometry and theoretical calculations.Understanding the combustion chemistry of biofuel compounds is of great importance in the intelligent selection of next-generation alternative fuels.  In this work, the thermal decompositions along with the dissociative ionization of ethylene glycol are studied by synchrotron VUV photoionization mass spectrometry.
