17 Size Exclusion Chromatography of Low Molecular Weight Materials Shyhchang S. Huang Noveon, Inc. Brecksville, Ohio, U.S.A. 1 INTRODUCTION Low molecular weight (MW) polymers, or oligomers, have been used as plasticizers, detergents, lubricants, food additives, and prepolymers for copolymerizations. The MW distribution of these materials is an important parameter for their performance. Common MW determination methods, such as light-scattering photometery, membrane osmometry, and ultra-centrifuge, do poorly with low MW oligomers because of their low sensitivities. Low MW oligomers are normally analyzed by colligative property measurements, such as vapor phase osmometry, boiling-point elevation (ebulliometry), freezing-point depression (cryoscopy), end group analyses by titration, and by various spectroscopic techniques. All these methods only generate one number-average MW (Mn) and are normally time consuming (1). The recently developed technique of © 2004 by Marcel Dekker, Inc.
MALDI-MS has been applied to determine the absolute MW of many relatively low MW materials. However, it is limited to samples with narrow MW distribution and with certain polarity (2). Traditionally, the chromatographic analysis of low MW material has been done by enthalpic interaction chromatography, where the retention mechanism is based more upon chemical structure than MW. These methods include gas chromatography, supercritical fluid chromatography, and normal-phase and reversed phase liquid chromatography (commonly referred to as HPLC, highperformance liquid chromatography). However, for MW determination for even low MW material, size exclusion chromatography is by far the most frequently used method just as for high MW material, because of its high speed, automation capability, and rich information (MW distribution and its averages of various modes). The small-pore-size gels for size exclusion chromatography (SEC) are more difficult to prepare and use than large-pore gels for at least two reasons. (1) Small-pore gels are more fragile than larger-pore gels. In order to achieve a good resolution, the total pore volume of SEC gels needs to be as large as possible. The volume of interstitial voids of an SEC column, regardless of particle size, is approximately 40% of the total column volume. Therefore, the smaller the pore size the thinner the solid wall, and the more fragile. (2) The applications for low MW separation normally demand high resolution, which may he achieved by reducing particle size or using several columns in series. Either method results in a high backpressure, which is detrimental to the fragile nature of a small-pore gel. SEC column technology has recently been improved significantly. The commercially available small-pore columns have become more and more popular. This chapter will also discuss other difficult issues for SEC of small molecules, such as MW dependence of detection sensitivities, calibration methods, and solvent mismatch interference. 2 RESOLUTION 2.1 Columns The SEC study of small molecules often demands a high resolution, especially when the resolution of an individual molecule is needed. The peak resolution, RS, of any chromatographic separation, including SEC, can be calculated using (3): © 2004 by Marcel Dekker, Inc. 1 RS ¼= 4(a 1)N 1=2 k0 1 þ k 0 (1)
