Understanding the thermal, chemical and mechanical stability and physical properties of polymers is essential for development success. The case studies below outline the experimental methodologies and data analysis using ARGEN™ to monitor polymer degradation and to characterize molecular weight as well as the effects of temperature, shear stress and solution conditions on the stability of...Read More
ACOMP was used to monitor the free radical polymerization of vinyl pyrrolidone using UV Absorption (UV), capillary viscometry and multi-angle light scattering (MALS). This technical note describes how ACOMP is used to monitor the polymerization of vinyl pyrrolidone under small changes in initiator concentrations.Read More
