Size exclusion chromatography (SEC)

The laboratory has considerable expertise in chromatography techniques, particularly those dedicated to polymers. We operate multiple aqueous and organic solvent SEC lines, equipped with multi-angle light scattering, refractive index and UV-visible detectors.

Equipment features

Aqueous phase:
  • 18-angle DLS detector: Wyatt Treos II
    (laser at 658 nm ; molar mass from 200 Da to 10 MDa)
  • RI detector: Wyatt, Optilab rex
  • UV-visible detector: wavelength from 190 to 800 nm
Organic phase:
  • 3-angle DLS detector : Wyatt Dawn Heleos
    (laser at 658 nm ; molar mass from 200 Da to 10 MDa)
  • RI detector: Agilent, 1260 Infinity II
  • UV-visible detector: wavelength from 190 to 800 nm
