Measuring Sustainable Polymer and Biopolymer Properties Using Light Scattering

Measuring Sustainable Polymer and Biopolymer Properties Using Light Scattering

Brought to you by Wyatt Technology

Overview

Light scattering analysis—used alone or in combination with other laboratory methods—is an indispensable technique for evaluating polymer properties, enabling researchers and manufacturers to characterize their starting materials and monitor their processes every step of the way.

Here, we discuss how light scattering is used to characterize sustainable and bio-derived polymers in the pharmaceutical and medical products, packaging, and personal care products industrial sectors.

Key Objectives:

Light scattering provides accurate, absolute molar masses and particle radii, even for highly branched molecules.
Light scattering and complementary techniques guide feedstock selection, product development, process optimization, and quality control efforts.
Light scattering provides early warnings for problems like decomposition and incompatible ingredients.
Advanced software records, organizes, and analyzes multi-sourced data, then creates reports and visualizations.
