摘要
Methodology has been established to determine the molecular weight distribution of the cellulosic composition of cotton fibers without prior extraction or derivatization, process that can degrade polymers. Dimethylacetamide with lithium chloride is used for dissolution of samples. Commercially available, automated gel permeation chromatography (GPC) instrumentation with incorporation of a viscometer coupled with refractive index detection applies the universal calibration concept. With this configuration, GPC provides both a sensitive monitor of cotton fiber molecular weight distributions and valid molecular weight values. The weight-average molecular weight determined for cotton fiber was 11 000.
