** I don't know if this kind of question is allowed. If not, please excuse me**

I am working to improve the processability of recycled PET. I am using chain extension in reactive extrusion.

I am looking for a lab which is used to run PET in triple-detection SEC in order to measure some sample molecular features (Mn, Mw, and viscosity + determine LCB content). Indeed, the problem with PET is that it is only soluble in few highly corrosive solvents like HFIP or O-chlorophenol and few lab are equipped with the righ setup.

My point here is to understand how the structure affect the rheological properties of chain extended r-PET.

Please, if your lab is equipped with such SEC or if you know a lab (preferably an academic one) that could be, I would be grateful that you let me know.

Thank you very much for your help!
