The PolarGel range is ideal for use with polar solvents, such as dimethyl formamide (DMF) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and for solvent combinations such as tetrahydrofuran with water.

• Medium polarity surface and high mechanical stability
• Operate in a wide range of solvents and solvent combinations

These eluents are very useful in GPC/SEC to separate polar materials, such as polar resins, modified polysaccharides or complex polar polymers that are difficult to analyze in traditional SEC solvents, such as tetrahydrofuran alone. PolarGel-L is used for low molecular weight polar polymers and PolarGel-M for high MW polar polymers.
These 'mixed bed' columns have a medium polarity surface and high mechanical stability. They are capable of operating in a wide range of solvents and solvent combinations, greatly enhancing your ability to analyze polar polymers that are not necessarily water soluble.
