UTILIZATION OF HIGH PERFORMANCE LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHY FOR STUDY OF CHEMICAL AND MOLECULAR STRUCTURE OF SELECTED PAINT MATERIALS

Abstract

The aim of this work is the characterization of selected new and traditional materials used in paint applications using various techniques of liquid chromatography. These techniques are high performance liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (LC-MS), gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and GPC in combination with a multi-angle light scattering detector and an online viscometer (GPC-MALS-VIS). Analyzed materials were polyglycidol, bisphenol A, epoxy resins based on bisphenol A and star polyesters based on lactide and caprolactone.
