The Macromolecular Chemical Reaction Engineering Laboratory is equipped for studying the kinetics of polymer reactions. A variety of batch and flow reactors are available for use under a wide range of controlled temperatures and pressures, including high vacuum and supercritical fluid conditions. Reactions nvolving hazardous and/or volatile materials can be done inside an ample fume hood. Two HPLC/GPC systems (HP-1050 with UV and RI detectors, Waters-150C with RI) are used for molecular weight distribution measurements in organic or aqueous solution. A thermogravimetric apparatus (Perkin-Elmer TGA-7) for pyrolysis studies is available in the Department's Thermal Analysis Lab. Also available in neighboring labs are apparatus for BET measurements, GC/MS and FTIR, and many other measurements.
