Description
GPC-QC is a compact, high-temperature GPC instrument for quality control in polyolefin manufacturing lines. The instrument has a simple and reliable approach that provides robust and precise Molar Mass Distribution for process control.
GPC-QC provides highly significant data in the production of complex multiple reaction products because it measures the whole Molar Mass Distribution.
GPC-QC delivers the complete Molar Mass Distribution for one sample through a simplified workflow, while keeping a fully automated sample preparation and an analysis free of manual solvent handling throughout the entire process. The complete analysis takes 30 minutes including dissolution.
The IR detection is highly stable, contributing to the overall reliability of the instrument. The IR detector also provides simultaneous chemical composition information, which is key for controlling the production of heterogeneous resins.
The instrument can also measure intrinsic viscosity by means of a built-in dual-capillary viscometer that can be incorporated as an additional feature.
Important applications for GPC-QC are:
- Pilot plants.
- Plant start-ups.
- Monitoring grade changes in multi-reactor processes.
- Monitoring the microstructure of pipe resins.
- Processors’ laboratories.
Features - Full automation of the entire analytical process.
- One sample analyzed in 30 minutes including dissolution.
- IR4 or IR5 MCT detectors for Concentration and Short Chain Branching information.
- Optional incorporation of a dual-capillary viscometer.
- Simple and reliable design for Quality Control environments.
- Comprehensive results (MMD, SCB, IVD).
- Outstanding precision thanks to the full automation and the detectors’ robustness.
