Key Features:

• Waters ACQUITY APC system is a next-generation high-resolution polymer chromatography platform specifically designed for rapid and accurate size exclusion chromatography (SEC) of polymers and macromolecules.

• Utilizes sub-3 µm and sub-2 µm particle size APC columns, providing higher resolution, shorter run times, and improved separation efficiency compared to traditional GPC/SEC systems.

• Optimized for both aqueous and organic solvent applications, making it versatile for synthetic polymers, biopolymers, and specialty materials.

• Delivers robust system pressure handling, enabling the use of shorter columns without loss of resolution, reducing solvent consumption and analysis cost.

• Compatible with multiple detectors including Refractive Index (RI), Photodiode Array (PDA), UV/Vis, and Multi-Angle Light Scattering (MALS) for advanced molecular weight characterization.

• Seamlessly integrates with Waters Empower™ GPC/SEC software, supporting molecular weight averages, polydispersity, branching, intrinsic viscosity, and other advanced calculations.

• Ensures excellent reproducibility and compliance with GLP/GMP and 21 CFR Part 11 regulatory requirements.

• Designed for high-throughput polymer analysis labs, providing efficiency, accuracy, and robustness.

Applications:

• Polymer Industry: Fast molecular weight distribution profiling of resins, plastics, elastomers, and engineered polymers.

• Biopolymers: Analysis of polysaccharides, cellulose derivatives, PEGs, and other bio-based macromolecules.

• Pharmaceuticals: Characterization of excipients, polymer-based drug carriers, and PEGylated compounds.

• Food & Nutrition: SEC of starches, gums, hydrocolloids, and polysaccharides.

• Specialty & Advanced Materials: Nanomaterials, block copolymers, biodegradable plastics.

• Research & Academia: Advanced studies in polymer chemistry, biomaterials, and nanotechnology.
