New microporous particles made from cellulose and konjac glucomannan effectively fractionate dextran polymers. This size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) column achieves narrow molecular mass distributions for polymer analysis.

Area of Science:

  • Polymer Science
  • Materials Science
  • Chromatography

Background:

  • Developing novel stationary phases for size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) is crucial for polymer characterization.
  • Microporous materials with controlled pore sizes are essential for efficient separation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To prepare new microporous particles from cellulose and konjac glucomannan (RC-KGM3) for preparative SEC.
  • To evaluate the performance of these particles in fractionating dextran in aqueous solution.

Main Methods:

  • Preparation of RC-KGM3 particles via alkali-thiourea dissolution, coagulation with CaCl2 and HCl.
  • Packing a preparative SEC column with the prepared particles.
  • Fractionation and refractionation of dextran 50 using the packed column.

  • Characterization of fractions using analytical SEC with laser light scattering.

    • Main Results:

    • Successfully prepared RC-KGM3 microporous particles with a mean pore diameter of 820 nm.
    • The SEC column exhibited an exclusion limit of 125 x 10^4 g/mol and a fractionation range of 5.6 x 10^4 to 125 x 10^4 g/mol.
    • Dextran 50 was fractionated into six fractions, with subsequent refractionation yielding samples with narrow molecular mass distributions (polydispersity index ~1.3-1.4).

    Conclusions:

    • The developed RC-KGM3 particles are suitable for packing preparative SEC columns.
    • The SEC column effectively fractionates polymers in aqueous solutions, achieving narrow molecular mass distributions.
    • This method offers a viable approach for polymer fractionation and purification.
