Liquid chromatography at critical conditions (LCCC) - Chemical heterogeneity of polyethylene oxides (ISO/TS 23973:2020)

This document establishes a valid method for separation of chemically heterogeneous polyethylene oxide (PEO) mixtures and for the determination the number and content of the chemically heterogeneous species in the overall sample.
The method presented in this document serves as a technical guideline and enables laboratories to learn the principle of "critical chromatography" on a validated system.
This method presented in this document with its stated system parameters is not applicable for other polymer classes, due to the diversity of the interactions between the polymer/mobile phase/stationary phase and the number of separation systems that are therefore available.
The evaluation of the interlaboratory testing has shown that many error sources relate to the technique of liquid chromatography in general. Possible error sources are described in Annex A.
Details on the evaluation of the interlaboratory testing are given in Annex B.
Elugrams of the participants (excerpts) are given in Annex C.
Investigations of the long-term stability of the test mixture are given in Annex D.

Flüssigchromatographie unter kritischen Bedingungen - Chemische Heterogenität von Polyethylenoxiden (ISO/TS 23973:2020)

Dieses Dokument beschreibt ein gültiges Verfahren für die Trennung von chemisch heterogenen Gemischen von Polyethylenoxid (PEO) und die Ermittlung der Anzahl sowie des Gehaltes der chemisch heterogenen Spezies in der Gesamtprobe.
Das in diesem Dokument dargestellte Verfahren dient als technischer Leitfaden und soll Laboratorien befähigen, das Prinzip der „kritischen Chromatographie“ an einem validierten System zu erlernen.
Auf Grund der Vielfalt der Wechselwirkungen Polymer/mobile Phase/stationäre Phase und der dadurch zur Verfügung stehenden Anzahl der Trennsysteme ist dieses Verfahren mit den angegebenen Systemparametern nicht allgemeingültig für andere Polymerklassen.
Die Auswertung der Ringversuche hat gezeigt, dass viele Fehlerquellen in der Technik der Flüssig-chromatographie allgemein zu suchen sind. Mögliche Fehlerquellen werden im Anhang A beschrieben.
Anhang B enthält Angaben zur Evaluierung des Ringversuchs.
Elugramme der Teilnehmer (Auszüge) sind im Anhang C enthalten.
Untersuchungen zur Langzeitstabilität des Prüfgemisches sind im Anhang D aufgeführt.

Tekočinska kromatografija pri kritičnih pogojih (LCCC) - Kemijska heterogenost polietilen oksidov (ISO/TS 23973:2020)

Ta dokument določa veljavno metodo za ločevanje kemijsko heterogenih zmesi polietilen oksida (PEO) ter za določevanje števila in vsebnosti kemijsko heterogenih vrst v celotnem vzorcu. Metoda, predstavljena v tem dokumentu, je podana kot tehnična smernica, ki laboratorijem omogoča, da uvedejo načelo »kritične kromatografije« v okviru potrjenega sistema. Metoda, predstavljena v tem dokumentu, in navedeni parametri sistema se zaradi raznolikosti interakcij med polimeri/mobilno fazo/stacionarno fazo in številom sistemov za ločevanje, ki so posledično na voljo, ne uporabljajo za druge razrede polimerov. Z vrednotenjem medlaboratorijskega preskušanja je bilo ugotovljeno, da se številni viri napak navezujejo na tehniko tekočinske kromatografije na splošno. Možni viri napak so opisani v dodatku A. Podrobnosti o vrednotenju medlaboratorijskega preskušanja so podane v dodatku B. Elugrami udeležencev (izvlečki) so podani v dodatku C. Raziskave dolgoročne stabilnosti preskusne zmesi so podane v dodatku D.

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.

ISO/TS 23973:2020(E)
Introduction
Since the first description of liquid chromatography at critical conditions (LCCC) in
1986 (see Reference [1]), the method has been continuously refined and has proved itself to be
indispensable for polymer characterisation. Separation is required not only for the quantitative
analysis of the individual species. It also offers the preconditions for qualitative characterisation of the
fractions by means of spectroscopic and spectrometric techniques. The key factor here is the reduction
of the polydispersity/chemical heterogeneity within a fraction, which represents a large problem for
mass-spectrometric investigations.
The method has been described extensively in professional circles over the last two decades for
different polymer systems, see References [2] to [9].
Within the framework of the Technical Committee, the extent that the method supplies consistent
results for a simple, chemically heterogeneous polymer mixture was clarified as part of interlaboratory
testing.
At this time, necessary experience relating to the selection of the system (interaction between the
polarities separation phase/eluent/sample) was not expected of any of the participating laboratories.
The interlaboratory testing has shown that, even w
