Function
Detect the amount and type of the compounds in the samples
Application
separation column
detector
liquid wasterecording system
• HPLC is suitable for separation and analysis of high boiling point, poor thermal stability, high polarity, high molecular weight and ionic compounds.
• As long as the sample can be dissolved in the mobile phase, it is suitable for the detector and can be directly analyzed.

Gel Permeation Chromatography
Main Application
Multiangle Laser Light Scattering
Quasielastic
Pump
Differential Refractometer
Viscosity Meter
SEC System
SEC/MALLS
(1) Polymer samples are first dissolved in appropriate solvent, and then injected into SEC system; the pump can supply the power and drive the solvent flowing in SEC system.
(2) After an adequate separation, polymer solution goes into the
multiangle laser light scattering, and then into quasielastic, or
viscosity meter. Both of them are combined with data wires
and differential refractometer to get output signal;
(3) The long-range structure information of polymer sample can
be obtained by computerized processing.
SEC/MALLS
Principle of Work ( Understand )
(1) To determine molecular weight and its distribution;
(2) To test parameters in solution, such as molecular
rotation radius, end-to-end distance, second virial
coefficient;
(3) To analyze the size and distribution of polymer
aggregates ranging from nanometer to micrometer.
SEC/MALLS
Functions ( Master )
(1) The preparation and test conditions of polymer samples;
(2) Reasons for the difference between theory and practice
molecular weight;
(3) Objective analysis to the experimental results.
