Thermal polymerization of styrene
A. Husain,Archie E. Hamielec +1 more
Abstract: An experimental investigation of the kinetics of bulk thermal polymerization of styrene in the temperature range of 200°–230°C is reported. Conversions and molecular weight averages were measured by gel permeation chromatography. At elevated temperatures, oxygen in the polymerization mixture appears to have negligible effect on the rate of polymerization and the molecular weights of the polymer. Experimental evidence suggests that the molecular weight development of the polymer is strongly influenced by transfer reactions.

A New Method for Identifying and Estimating the Parameters of the Instrumental Spreading Function in Size Exclusion Chromatography-Application to Particle Size Analysis
TL;DR: In this article, a new method for identifying and estimating the instrumental spreading function in size exclusion chromatography was proposed based on the solution of the integral equation when the size distribution of the injected standards are known.

Chromatography of Suspensions - Analytical Corrections for Axial Dispersion
TL;DR: In this article, an analytical method is proposed to correct the signal from a turbidity detector for axial dispersion in the chromatography of particle suspensions, which is applicable for both linear and nonlinear particle diameter-retention volume calibration curves.

Chromatography of Suspensions, An Absolute Particle Size Detector Based on Turbidity-spectra Analysis - a Simulation Study
TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that the two parameter log-normal distribution function is an adequate representation of the detector cell contents and a computational scheme is outlined whereby the distribution parameters and the number of particles in the detector cells are calculated as a function of retention volume.

An Analysis of Imperfect Resolution in the Chromatography of Particle Suspensions
TL;DR: In this article, a general method of correction for imperfect resolution in the chromatography of particle suspensions was proposed, which overcomes most of the limitations of previously reported methods and is applied to the analysis of chromatograms of narrow Dow polystyrene latices measured by size exclusion chromatography.
