Polyurethane Oligomer Testing
The testing of polyurethane oligomers is critical for ensuring product quality and compliance with industry standards. Polyurethane oligomers are essential components in the formulation of a wide range of products, including adhesives, coatings, sealants, and elastomers. The primary focus of our testing service lies in identifying the molecular weight distribution, chemical composition, and stability of these compounds.
Polyurethane oligomer testing involves several key aspects that are essential for accurate analysis:
- Sample preparation ensuring homogeneity
- Use of advanced analytical techniques such as gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR)
- Determination of molecular weight distribution through multi-angle laser light scattering (MALLS)
- Compliance with international standards including ISO, ASTM, and EN
The process begins with the receipt of a sample from our clients. Our experienced staff then prepares the sample for testing ensuring it meets the required homogeneity criteria. Once prepared, we perform a series of tests to determine various properties:
- Molecular weight distribution using GPC and MALLS
- Chemical composition analysis via NMR spectroscopy
- Stability testing under different environmental conditions
The results from these tests are meticulously analyzed, providing a comprehensive report that includes detailed data on the molecular weight distribution, chemical composition, and stability of the polyurethane oligomers.
Our service is designed to cater to the needs of quality managers, compliance officers, R&D engineers, and procurement professionals. By leveraging our expertise in this field, we ensure that clients receive reliable and accurate test results which can be used to make informed decisions about their products and processes.
