Figure 12 Chromatogram <strong>of</strong> Acrawax C in polyurethane. Column: Jordi DVB 100A ˚ ,<br />

250 10mm; mobile phase: benzyl alcohol, 250ppm BHT; flow rate: 1.0mL/min;<br />

temperature: 1508C; injection volume: 200mL.<br />

soluble in benzyl alcohol at 1508C. The concentration <strong>of</strong> Acrawax C can be<br />

analyzed using a high-temperature SEC with a small-pore (100A ˚ ) column.<br />

Acrawax C, which appears as a negative peak at 9.1min (Fig. 12), is well separated<br />

from the polyurethane <strong>and</strong> other additives. In this type <strong>of</strong> method, the viscosity <strong>of</strong><br />

the polymer should not be too high.<br />
