Abstract
Abstract A process for the preparation of hard and porous polyvinylalcohol gels for aqueous gel permeation chromatography, comprises suspension-polymerizing vinyl acetate with diethylene glycol dimethacrylate or glycidyl methacrylate in the presence of a diluent which controls pore size of the product as a crosslinking agent, saponifying the resulting porous polyvinyl acetate gel with an alkali, and subjecting the resulting porous polyvinylalcohol gel to post-crosslinking with epichlorohydrin.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
137 words
A process for the preparation of hard and porous polyvinyl alcohol gels for aqueous gel permeation chromatography, which comprises: suspension-polymerizing a mixture of vinyl acetate and at least one crosslinking agent selected from the group consisting of diethylene glycol dimethacrylate and glycidyl methacrylate, in the presence of a diluent, wherein the weight ratio of the amount of said diluent to the amount of said mixture of vinyl acetate and crosslinking agent is in the range of from 50 : 100 to 250 : 100, and the weight ratio of the amount of said vinyl acetate to the amount of said crosslinking agent is in the range of from 90 : 10 to 30 : 70. saponifying the resulting porous polyvinyl acetate gel with an alkali; and subjecting the resulting porous polyvinyl alcohol gel to postcrosslinking with epichlorohydrin.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
137 words
A process for the preparation of hard and porous polyvinyl alcohol gels for aqueous gel permeation chromatography, which comprises: suspension-polymerizing a mixture of vinyl acetate and at least one crosslinking agent selected from the group consisting of diethylene glycol dimethacrylate and glycidyl methacrylate, in the presence of a diluent, wherein the weight ratio of the amount of said diluent to the amount of said mixture of vinyl acetate and crosslinking agent is in the range of from 50 : 100 to 250 : 100, and the weight ratio of the amount of said vinyl acetate to the amount of said crosslinking agent is in the range of from 90 : 10 to 30 : 70. saponifying the resulting porous polyvinyl acetate gel with an alkali; and subjecting the resulting porous polyvinyl alcohol gel to postcrosslinking with epichlorohydrin.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
24 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said diluent is a member selected from the group consisting of isoamyl alcohol, toluene, nitromethane and n-amyl alcohol.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
26 words
The process of claim 1 wherein the amount of epichlorohydrin is 2 to 20% by weight based on the amount of polyvinylalcohol produced by the saponification.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
12 words
The hard, porous polyvinylalcohol gel prepared by the process of claim 1.
