This document describes a method for analyzing polybutadiene using Agilent PLgel 5 μm MIXED-D columns. The column is specifically designed for the analysis of relatively low molecular weight polybutadiene, where material above 400,000 MW is unlikely to be present. The high pore volume, concentrated in this operating range, combined with the 5 μm efficiency, provides excellent resolution for low MW polymers and oligomers.
The document provides a technical overview of the Agilent PLgel 5 um MIXED-D column, which is specifically designed for the analysis of polymers, paints, and resin systems where material above 400,000 MW is unlikely to be present. The high pore volume concentrated in this operating range, combined with 5 um efficiency, provides excellent resolution for low molecular weight polymers and oligomers.
The column is specifically designed for the analysis of polymers, paints and resin systems where material above 400,000 MW is unlikely to be present.
The column set consists of two columns with a length of 300 mm and a diameter of 7.5 mm.
The analysis utilized a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min.
