Abstract

This paper discusses the analysis of star-branched and dendritic polyisobutylenes (PIBs) using branching parameters based on radii of gyration Rg,z and hydrodynamic radii Rh,z. Rg,z and Rh,z were measured by Size Exclusion Chromatography equipped with a Wyatt Technology Viscostar viscometer (VIS), a Wyatt Optilab DSP RI detector, a Wyatt DAWN EOS 18 angle Multiangle Light Scattering (MALS) detector and a Wyatt Quasi-elastic Light Scattering QELS detector. Branching parameters were calculated from these measurements and compared with those computed for these architectures.
