New DSV App Note: Gilsonite Analysis

Dear Valued Customers,

We have posted a DSV application note illustrating the use of HT-DSV for the molecular weight measurement of Gilsonite.  This method shows the potential of using HT-DSV for the molecular weight measurement of very complex samples like Gilsonite.  Such samples may have unknown compositions or structures that make chromatographic methods of measurement infeasible.  Solution viscosity measurements can provide valid IV values and the Mark-Houwink conversion can provide a reasonable estimate of MW.  Thank you to Mr. Dario Monte from the American Gilsonite Company for his support of this work.

Sincerely, 

​Wei Sen Wong
