凝胶渗透色谱法测定分子量

样品的重均分子量(Mw)和分子量分布(Mw/Mn)由凝胶渗透色谱 (gel permeation chromatography, GPC) 测定。TSP P100 高效液相色谱仪 (美国，Thermoquest公司生产) 配以TSK G3000-PWXL色谱柱。流动相为0.2mol/L CH3COOH /0.1mol/L CH3COONa溶液，流速1.0ml/min，柱温保持30°C，RI150示差折射检测器检测。测试样品浓度为0.4% (w/v)，以TOSOH pullulan 为分子量标准，用江申工作站(大连江申色谱软件公司生产) 进行数据处理得到重均分子量Mw和分子量分布Mw/Mn。

Determiantion of molecular weight
Weight-average molecular weight (Mw), number average molecular weight (Mn) and molecular weight dispersion (Mw/Mn) of sample were measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The GPC equipment consisted of TSK G3000-PWXL columns, TSP P100 pump and RI 150 refractive index detector. The eluent was 0.2 M CH3COOH/0.1 M CH3COONa. The flow rate and column’s temperature was maintained at 1.0 ml/min. The column temperature was maintained at 30°C. The sample concentration was 0.4 mg/ml. The standards used to calibrate the column were TOSOH pullulan. All data provided by the GPC system were collected and analysed using the Jiangshen Workstation software package.
