Due to the differences in the undercooling between PP and PE, analysis of complex PP-PE combination has been shown to require both TREF and CRYSTAF to unequivocally characterize unknown samples. Both HDPE and Ethylene-Propylene copolymer (EP) are very good example to use this technique.
Hence CRYSTAF-TREF instrument is very convenient option to analyse CCD in Polyolefin such as PP-PE copolymer.
Benchtop instrument with the possibility of performing CRYSTAF or TREF techniques.
Fully automated processes, from the sample preparation up to the final cleaning.
No manpower and no solvents handling.
Possibility of analyzing up to 5 samples with no supervision required.
Low solvent consumption.
Infrared Detector IR4 incorporated, with the possibility of adding a composition sensor for methyls or carbonyls measurement.
Possibility of adding a Viscometer detector in TREF mode.
Possibility of subambient capability (down to -20ºC) for low crystallinity samples.
Virtual Instrumentation software with whole control of the instrument process, storage of all the detectors signals and monitoring of the sensors system.
Possibility of remote control capability for fast diagnosis and support from Polymer Char Service Center.
