- Abstract:
- Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and gas
chromatography (GC) were successfully introduced into a
high-throughput workflow. The feasibility and limitations of
online GPC with a high-speed column was evaluated by
measuring polystyrene standards and comparison of the results
with regular offline GPC measurements. The reliability
of the online GC characterization was investigated by monitoring
the cationic ring-opening-polymerization of 2-ethyl-2-
oxazoline, whose polymerization kinetics were determined
by both online and offline GC.
