Structure dictates a polymeric material's properties and ultimately its performance in the
marketplace. Elucidation of structural differences among polymer samples is therefore …

The advancement of high-temperature interaction chromatography (HT-IC) is a key
milestone in polyolefin characterization. Temperature gradient interaction chromatography …

Although produced from simple monomers that contain just carbon and hydrogen, polyolefin
have complex molecular structures that are characterized by distributions in molar mass …

Crystallization kinetics of an isotactic homopolymer polypropylene (HPP), an impact
copolymer polypropylene (ICPP), and their composites were studied in this work. The …

Polyolefins constitute half of the annual polymer production worldwide. Polyolefins pose
special challenges for their analysis owing to their semicrystalline nature and insolubility in …

Polypropylene resins issuing from polymerization reactors are degraded by peroxides in
subsequent reactive extrusion processes to improve their processability. This operation …

Bimodal high‐density polyethylene (bHDPE) is a complex, multicomponent polyethylene
(PE) material whose synthesis in a multistage process can be challenging. Three bHDPEs …

The chapter focuses on phenomenon of entropy/enthalpy compensation during the
chromatographic run by continuous change in the mobile phase (eluent) composition. The …

The chapter provides a comprehensive description of possibilities of coupling of different
modes of polymer LC. Approaches of two-dimensional analysis are followed by description …

Mangroves can become traps for plastic waste, so plastic waste has a long residence time
and then fragments into microplastics and settles in mangrove sediments. The health level of …
