技術簡介
Technology Description

非對稱流場場流分離技術 (AF4) 利用交叉流場與樣品擴散行為,在無填充材的薄層通道中分離不同尺寸的高分子與奈米粒子。結合多角度光散射 (MALS)、折射率 (RI) 及紫外光 (UV) 偵測器,可分析分子量分布、迴轉半徑及聚集狀態,協助材料研發與批次品質比較。
Asymmetrical flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) separates polymers and nanoparticles according to their diffusion behavior under cross-flow in an unpacked thin channel. Coupled with multi-angle light scattering (MALS), refractive index (RI), and ultraviolet (UV) detectors, the system characterizes molar mass distributions, radii of gyration, and aggregation to support material development and batch quality comparison.
