he technical polymethylene naphthalene sulfonates (TPNS) are used in different industries. TPNS are thought to be mixture
of polymethylene naphthalene sulfonates with wide molecular weight distribution (MWD) parameters and different span
of the average molecular weights. MWD and average molecular weights determine the field of application of this product. For
evaluation of TPNS MWD characteristics, two chromatographic methods are used gel permeation (GP) and thin layer (TL)
chromatography as well as extraction-precipitation (EP) procedure. All these methods have drawbacks. For EP, the drawbacks
are the duration of analysis; low reproducibility and low selectivity of fractionating and; for GP and TL chromatography, the
drawbacks are the poor informativity because of the insufficient separation and complexity of the quantitative assessment of
obtained data. We believe that reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) with spectrophotometric
detector is an interesting and advanced method. The systematic researches of TPNS MWD by means of this method are very
rare. The objective of this research is to develop the methodology of HPLC and to compare it with known methods of the
assessment of TPNS MWD. The capabilities and advantages of the methodology of HPLC are demonstrated on the TPNS
samples for different industries. The high reproducibility and informativity of the method are revealed compared to exist
methods. New method allows to separate, identify and quantify the full fraction makeup of TPNS. The characteristics of MWD
are estimated reliably.
