The use of only one SEC column brings a certain limitation due to its dedicated pore size and a limited column volume. By coupling two columns this hurdle can be overcome. Doubling the column length implies a doubled column volume which results in improved resolution of peaks. Additionally, if using two columns with different pore size, the applicable molecular weight range can be increased significantly....
A Schlenk Line is a tubular glass apparatus commonly used in chemistry or material laboratory research to carry out experiments under a vacuum and an inert atmosphere (like nitrogen or argon). It is used when samples are sensitive to air/moisture and the vacuum is also often used to remove the last traces of solvent from a sample. A Schlenk Line typically contains a dual glass manifold with multiple ports; the number of ports is configurable....
