Analysis of star polymers using the Agilent 1260 Infinity Multi-Detector GPC/SEC System

In this application note, Agilent demonstrates the use of the Agilent 1260 Infinity Multi-Detector GPC/SEC System for analyzing star polymers. The system employs a light scattering detector to accurately calculate molecular weights, while a viscometer determines the number of arms in the polymers. The system's exceptional stability and sensitivity allow for distinguishing subtle differences in molecular density that arise from varying numbers of arms in the star polymers.
