Maximizing Performance through GPC Column Selection: Then and Now
GPC/SEC, Gel Permeation/Size Exclusion Chromatography is an important technique for determining the molecular weight distribution of natural and synthetic polymers. Many older, established GPC methods use multiple columns connected in series resulting in long run times and low sample throughput.
In this webinar, we will look at the parameters and considerations for GPC columns and selection. With a wide variety of column packing types available and various column dimensions, we will show how to maximize performance through column selection. Method development parameters, detector options and Instrumentation and their role for improving the GPC analysis will also be discussed.
