Polymer Standards for GPC/SEC

Polymer Standards for GPC/SEC from Agilent Technologies

Our array of specialized GPC and SEC standards enhance your polymer analysis. Get new processes up and running quicker with calibration kits for target samples, including polyacrylic acid and polysaccharide, as well as EasiCal and EasiVal analyses. We offer standards with precise individual molecular weights for a range of polymers, as well as custom polymer standards to speed up method development.

Calibration Kits

Agilent offers a wide range of polymer standard kits for conventional GCP/SEC column calibration or for calibrating light scattering and viscometry detectors.  The kits are in boxed sets of ten differentpolymer standards covering a particular molecular weight range, to be used with organic and aqueous, medium polarity and polar solvents.  Every individual polymer has its own Certificate of Analysis of the analytical conditions and values, such as Mp needed for constructing a calibration plot.  The polymers are chosen to give equidistant calibration points on a logarithmic MW scale, providing a more uniform calibration curve.

Individual Polymer Molecular Weights

We design our individual standards to have the narrowest molecular weight distribution commercially available.  Additionally, they cover the widest molecular weight range, from 162-15 million MW.  The current polystyrene nominal molecular weight of 15 million MW has a polydispersity ≤1.10.  These standards are generally available in 1, 5 and 10 g quantities and each comes with its own Certificate of Analysis detailing analysis conditions and relevant data.
