International Workshop/Conference on Coupled, Hyphenated, and Multidimensional
Liquid Chromatographic Procedures for Separation of Macromolecules,
913 September 2001, Bratislava, Slovak Republic
This meeting, organized by the Polymer Institute of the Slovak Academy
of Sciences and the Slovak Society of Industrial Chemistry, will bring
together researchers from West and East working in both academic and
industrial laboratories that are engaged in separation techniques aimed
at characterization of synthetic and natural macromolecules. Current
developments in separation methods and their applications will be discussed,
including recent progress in the characterization of industrial polymeric
materials and complex macromolecular systems such as copolymers, polymer
blends, and functionalized macromolecules.
Specific topics will include the following:
- coupling of different separation mechanisms within one single liquid
chromatographic (LC) column
- hyphenation of various LC detectors, as well as combination of
LC with nonchromatographic techniques (mass spectrometry, NMR and
IR spectrometry, etc.)
- two- and multidimensional LC of complex polymers: combination of
two or several independent LC systems
