Waters Alliance GPC/SEC System high-resolution gel permeation chromatography system for polymer molecular weight distribution and size exclusion analysis in QA/QC and research laboratories.
  • Key Features:

    • The Waters Alliance GPC/SEC system is a dedicated, high-resolution gel permeation and size exclusion chromatography platform designed for accurate polymer molecular weight distribution analysis.

    • Based on the Alliance HPLC platform, it offers stable flow delivery, precise injection, and excellent baseline stability, ensuring reproducible results.

    • Compatible with aqueous and organic solvents, enabling analysis of synthetic polymers, natural polymers, proteins, and biopolymers.

    • Modular and flexible – can integrate with RI, UV/Vis, PDA, viscometer, or light scattering detectors for advanced characterization.

    • Supported by Waters Empower™ GPC/SEC software for molecular weight, intrinsic viscosity, and polydispersity calculations.

    • Reliable temperature control and optimized solvent management for high reproducibility.

    • Ideal for both QA/QC polymer analysis and advanced materials research.

    • GLP/GMP-ready when combined with Waters Empower software (21 CFR Part 11 compliant).

  • Applications:

    • Polymer Industry: Determination of molecular weight distribution of resins, plastics, elastomers, and synthetic polymers.

    • Biopolymers: Characterization of polysaccharides, cellulose derivatives, and proteins.

    • Pharmaceuticals: Analysis of excipients, PEGylated drugs, and polymer-based drug delivery formulations.

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

    • Specialty & Petrochemicals: QC of engineered polymers, lubricants, and additives.

    • Academic Research: Polymer science, biomaterials, and advanced chemistry.
