The Best Instruments In The World for absolute macromolecular characterization.
O
UR DAWN " instruments will measure the absolute | molecular weight of your polymers directly and easily. Couple our systems to your existing GPC/SEC line and you'll be determining absolute weights, sizes and distributions without having to rely on polymer standards, column calibration, "universal" constants, orflowrate effects.
Call us o t H Ρ 805-963-5904 * rfor FREE literature! 1
You can even determine branching ratios, molecular sizes, and conformations in minutes—without mak ing any assumptions. The DAWNs can also be used to observe polymerization and kinetics as they occur, or
for immediate quality control "fingerprinting" of com plex polymer solutions. Please contact us for a complete literature pack age. It won't take us long to delight you with the best service, support—and instruments—in the world!
