Grinding Polymers for Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis

In this application note the 6750 Freezer/Mill was used for grinding compact synthetic fabrics as well as polymer yarns, fleece materials and filaments (polypropylene, polyethylene or polyester). Grinding was required for accurate qualitative and quantitative analysis of additives contained in synthetic materials (e.g. antioxidants using HPLC and INOC-Test). The 6750 Freezer/Mill is ideal for this application, providing the required particle size reduction in a relatively short time period.
