CRYSTAF
CRYSTAF is a fully automated instrument intended for the fast measurement of the Chemical Composition Distrinution (CCD) in Polyolefins.
CRYSTAF instrument performs the Crystallization Analysis Fractionation technique to separate the polymer by its comonomer content. The process is done in a single temperature ramp (crystallation step), while the polymer solution concentration is monitored by using infrared Detector IR4 of Polymer Char.
