Agilent 1260 Infinity II GPC with MDS - RID and VWD

Tender description

Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) is a type of high-performance liquid chromatography, that separates analytes on the basis of solvated size, typically in organic solvents (in our case, THF, CHCl3 and DMF). We exploit this technique to analyse polymers molecular weight and distribution. In the Howdle lab there are already two Agilent 1260 Infinity systems which are totally compatible in terms of hardware and software with the Agilent 1260 Infinity II system proposed in the new quote. The Agilent hardware components' design will allow us an easy "plug and play" opportunity for the use of the software already in installed without the need to acquire extra licences. Not only, it will facilitate any hardware components (detectors, pumps, etc.) relocation, among the different systems in case failure of one the old systems reducing costs in building new compatible GPC apparatuses. Alongside with the high compatibility of the new systems with the ones already in the laboratory, the use of the same system will maintain a high continuity in performance.
