Our Businesses

Polymer Char’s main business is the development of the latest technology in instrumentation for Polymer Analysis, and more specifically for Structural Characterization of Polyolefins. It also provides analytical, fractionation and consulting services:

Analytical Instrumentation

  • GPC-IR: The new generation of High Temperature GPC/SEC, dedicated to the Molar Mass Distribution analysis of polyolefins. Fully automated sample preparation and filtration, with triple detector (c/V/ LS) and Composition Sensor (IR4 and IR5 MCT).
  • CRYSTAF: Innovative and fast approach to the Chemical Composition Distribution analysis in Polyolefins needing a single temperature cycle.
  • TREF: Fully automated instrument to perform the classical technique for the characterization of the CCD in Polyolefins.
  • CRYSTAF-TREF: CRYSTAF and TREF techniques are available in the same equipment for a full Chemical Composition Distribution characterization.
  • CEF: High-throughput Chemical Composition Distribution analyzer with results every 30 min. and capability of running 70 samples with no supervision required.
  • CFC: Automated and benchtop cross-fractionation instrument to analyze the bivariate distribution in Polyolefins by TREF and GPC.
  • CRYSTEX: Automated Xylene Solubles measurement with no manual solvents handling, including sample preparation and final cleaning.
  • CRYSTAF QC: Simplified CRYSTAF instrument with samples results every 2 hours focused on Quality Control or Process Control laboratories.
  • Hardware on demand.

Preparative Fractionation Instrumentation

  • PREP mc2: Preparative instrument to fractionate polymers by Molar Mass or Composition (TREF or CRYSTAF) with no hot solvents handling.

Infrared Detectors

  • IR4: Polymer Char’s well-known infrared detector for concentration and composition measurement in Polyolefins for GPC, HPLC, TREF...
  • IR5 MCT: A very sensitive infrared detector for highly demanding applications in GPC, HPLC and other separation techniques.

Data Acquisition Modules

  • Data Unit 200: Versatile signals acquisition device to link any vendor GPC instrument with Polymer Char’s GPC acquisition and calculations unit.

Software

  • GPC One Software: the most comprehensive GPC Calculations Software available in the market integrating all detectors signals in the same package.
