β¦ Synopsis
Three branching functions are evaluated for use in the measurement of random branching by GPC. Initial evaluations of the functions g1l2, g3/2, and h3 were made by computer simulations of GPC experiments using published data of lightly and highly randomly branched polymers. Actual GPC experiments were then performed on characterized samples of lightly and highly branched styrene-divinylbenzene copolymers. The results indicate that h3 adequately predicts branching and molecular weight at all branching densities, while g1/2 is accurate only for lightly branched polymers and g3/2 is accurate only for highly branched polymers. A means for predicting the M-[q] curve for branched polymers from the M-[q] calibration curve for linear polymer is proposed.

Although a number of studies have reported successful embolization of the side branches to relieve angina, this phenomenon is still controversial and
Synthetic pigments in food can be simultaneously analysed qualitatively and quantitatively by using a spectropbotometric method combined with the branch and bound algorithm. This method does not require a preseparation of the pigments and the relative error for each component in mixed samples was le
