This lecture-style training course supplies skills for modern analysis of macromolecules molar mass and property distributions, using gel permeation chromatography (GPC), a.k.a. size exclusion chromatography (SEC).

The 6-hour program will cover the fundamental aspects of the GPC/SEC separation technique, with a balanced view of both, the advantages and limitations of GPC/SEC (stand-alone or hyphenated with light scattering, viscometry, and other techniques).  See Details

Each attendee will receive a course manual to keep for future reference and a Certificate of Attendance.
 Key Topics
  • Key Concepts in Polymer Synthesis and Liquid Chromatography techniques (GPC/SEC/HPLC)
  • Fundamentals of GPC, separation mechanism, objectives
  • Experimental set-up parameters; Modern GPC Column Trends, Column Selection
  • Best Practice in GPC Method Development Instrument qualifications
  • Calibration methods; How to be more successful and productive in GPC
  • Novel Approaches in Copolymer analysis, multidetection and coupling with hyphenated techniques

How you will benefit from this course
  • It equips you to produce and analyze data; to qualify the condition of the analytical system and separation columns; to optimize the application conditions and the work flow in the lab.
  • You will receive practical advice to get reproducible and accurate separations.
  • Learn tricks of the trade to enhance your systems precision and sensitivity, as well as troubleshooting strategies
  • The meeting set-up provides a networking environment and face to face disacussion with experienced GPC practitioners.

Who should attend

This course is designed for analysts, managers and researchers who currently use GPC in a laboratory This entry level course focuses on providing and improving their overall skills set.  It is most useful when you have at least some hands-on GPC experience.
