About this manual

This document provides a technical overview of the calibration process for Agilent OligoPore columns used in gel permeation chromatography. These columns feature an innovative medium with significantly increased pore volumes compared to conventional low pore size columns, resulting in higher resolution specifically for the oligomeric region and analysis of low molecular weight oligomers in organic solvents.

The document details a typical calibration procedure using polystyrene narrow standards in tetrahydrofuran (THF). It includes specific experimental conditions such as column dimensions, flow rate, injection volume, and detection method. The text presents data on resolved lower molecular weight polystyrenes and illustrates the resulting linear calibration curve up to the exclusion limit.
