These hydrophilic polymers are suitable for both aqueous and organic GPC/SEC using most polar organic solvents. The polyethylene oxides (PEO) are available in high molecular weights, while the polyethylene glycols (PEG) cover the lower molecular weight range. The two types are chemically similar so they can be used together across a wider molecular weight range, with individual molecular weight aqueous and organic polymer standards from 62 to 1,300,000 Da.
Analysis of polymers by GPC for the energy and chemicals industry. Covers polyolefins, guar gums, engineering polymers, elastomers, and low molecular weight resins.
Agilent acquires Polymer Standards Service (PSS), broadening offerings for gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and size exclusion chromatography (SEC) polymer analysis. The acquisition expands Agilent’s portfolio and offerings for the analysis of natural and synthetic polymers.
