Abstract
A SEC/GPC chromatograph which includes columns for fractionating polymers samples by molecular weight, conveying apparatus for causing a stream of solvent to flow through the columns from a source of this solvent, a rotary injection valve for sequentially injecting a series of polymer samples into the solvent stream ahead of the columns, a detector for generating a peak signal indicative of the molecular weight of the fractionated polymer samples eluting from the columns and a computer controller for processing the peak signal from the detector into a molecular weight distribution output, and for controlling the valve, and for performing several self-diagnostic tests.
