An additional technique that has been found useful in analysis of the composition of polymers and blends is liquid chromatography. Pasch and Rode used the critical point of adsorption of the least polar component of a blend to determine the liquid chromatographic conditions for separating blends of polymethacrylates into components (50). High pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) in combination with mass spectroscopy was used to analyze the components of an epoxy resin (51). HPLC has also been used with a precipitation-redissolution technique to separate polymer molecular weights for several polymers as a shorter technique compared to SEC (52). Reverse-phase liquid chromatography with UV detection was useful in qualitative determination of brominated flame retardants in polymeric waste materials (53).
