Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC)

Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) is an effective means of separating and analyzing polymers, resins, oils, plastics, plasticizers, and small organics whose molecular weight can vary from 100-10,000,000 Daltons. HPLC columns used for GPC are packed with polymeric media that can range in pore size from 50 Å to 10E6 Å and can be used with organic solvents such as toluene, THF, methanol, DMF, and methylene chloride.

Ideal gel permeation chromatography requires a GPC column that has superior mechanical strength and extreme solvent and temperature compatibility.
