Chromatographic NMR with size exclusion chromatography stationary phases.
Chromatographic NMR describes the use of stationary phases or solvent additives, such as polymers, to modify the diffusion properties of analyte molecules and thereby improve the observed resolution in the diffusion domain. This paper demonstrates similar ideas using size exclusion chromatographic media and characterises the changes in the observed diffusion coefficient using a series of polymer molecular weight reference standards of known polydispersity. The results are interpreted in terms of a simple description of the size exclusion phenomena.
