  • Published:
Microchimica Acta Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

A Menzies-Wright ebulliometric apparatus has been developed for the determination of molecular weights using 0.3 ml of solvent. This allows such determinations to be carried out with good precision and accuracy (deviations of less than 2%) on samples of 1–3 mg.

Zusammenfassung

Ein Menzies-Wright Ebulliometer zur Bestimmung des Molekulargewichts wurde entwickelt, wobei nur 0,3 ml Lösungsmittel verwendet werden. Bestimmungen mit guter Präzision und Genauigkeit (Abweichungen weniger als 2%) können mit Proben von 1 bis 3 mg ausgeführt werden.

Résumé

On a réalisé un appareil ébulliométrique Menzies-Wright pour la détermination des poids moléculaires avec 0,3 ml de solvant. Ces déterminations peuvent ainsi être effectuées avec une précision et une exactitude satisfaisantes (écarts inférieurs à 2%) sur des échantillons de 1 à 3 mg.
