In a new open-access publication, we present results of our long-lasting investigations on the chromatographic separation of polyethylene glycols (PEGs). Syntheses of polymers like PEGs always yield products with a distribution of molar weights. The broader such distribution, the less defined are th...

Advanced measurement techniques for diffusion coefficients pave the way to a better understanding of diffusion in chemical processes. In an open-acess paper by Wenchang Wu et al. from the Institute of Advanced Optical Technologies – Thermophysical Properties (AOT‑TP), diffusivities of polyethylene g...

Malte Kaspereit contributed to a chapter on Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) in the recently published collection book on "Particle Separation Techniques" (Ed. C. Contado). The chapter and the book can be accessed here: W. Peukert, M. Kaspereit, T. Hofe, and L. Gromotka: Size exclusion chro...

Malte Kaspereit co-authored a paper with Hoang Nguyen (now at Northumbria University, Newcastle/UK) and Tuomo Sainio (LUT - Lappeenranta-Lahti University of Technology, Finland) that covers an experimental-theoretical study on the production of oligosaccharides from natural sources. It is shown that...

Tuomo Sainio (LUT, Finland) and Malte Kaspereit present in "Chemical Engineering Science" a thorough model-based analysis on reactor-separator processes for the degradation of polymeric and oligomeric compounds to produce products with controlled molar weight distributions (MWD).

Bilal Haider et al. published two papers on the preparation of PDMS-coated asymmetric polyethersulfone mixed-matrix membranes (MMMs) that contain SAPO-34 and activated carbon, respectively. The articles are based on his PhD project on membrane-based gas separation performed in our group. B. Haide...

The 3rd edition of the book "Preparative Chromatography" has just been published by Wiley. Like for the previous editions, Malte Kaspereit contributed to some chapters. The book is one of the rare comprehensive works in the fast-changing of applied industrial chromatography.
