Polymers are sensitive molecules. Depending on the polymer architecture or copolymer composition, it is possible to have bonds present along the polymer chain that can easily be broken.

In polystyrene solutions, breaking the polymer chains can happen, just by stirring a high molecular weight viscous solution.
RAFA 2024 Highlights: Contemporary Food Contamination Analysis Using Chromatography
November 18th 2024A series of lectures focusing on emerging analytical techniques used to analyse food contamination took place on Wednesday 6 November 2024 at RAFA 2024 in Prague, Czech Republic. The session included new approaches for analysing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), polychlorinated alkanes (PCAS), Mineral Oil Hydrocarbons (MOH), and short- and medium-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs and MCCPs).
