Chemical Composition Analysis of Polyolefins by Multiple Detection GPC-IR5

3 Jul 2011

In this application note micro-structural differences of polyethylene and polypropylene as well as the compositional variation in ethylene propylene are analysed by gel permeation chromatography techniques. Ethylene-propylene composition is analysed by GPC and multiwavelength infrared detection and by GPC with infrared, light scattering and viscosity detection. Molar mass distribution curves for three samples are made.

Size Exclusion ChromatographySize exclusion chromatography (SEC) is a liquid chromatographic technique used to separate and identify molecules based on their size, including polymers, proteins, nanoparticles & nucleic acid. SEC is further subdivided into gel filtration chromatography (GFC) and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) when an aqueous or organic mobile phase is used respectively. HPLC-based SEC systems and columns are available for analytical separation alongside SEC spin columns or filters to prep samples for many protocols. Find the best size exclusion chromatography equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Environmental Monitoring and TestingEnvironmental monitoring and testing uses handheld portable analyzers, kits, spectrometers or chromatography systems for air, water, soil, food and other sample testing. Useful features of analyzers such as BOD and COD include portability, easy calibration, automation and sensitivity.  Environmental test kits for pH, water, moisture, etc, should be accurate, sensitive, reliable, fast and easy to use.
