Abstract:
Summary A gas chromatographic method using temperature-programmed poly-dimethylsiloxane OV-101 and poly(pheny ether) (5 rings) capillary columns was developed to separate and quantify the reaction by-products in ethylene oligomers. It was found that the content of 2-alkyl-1-alkenes, 2-alkenes and n-alkanes in the C8–C18 -olefin fractions amounts to 29, 10 and 2.6% respectively.
