4. Molecular Weight Distribution Results

Theoretical distribution percentages calculated based on the Time vs. Log(MW) curve area:

Retention Time (min) Molecular Size (Dalton) Distribution Percentage (%)
25.0 ~ 28.0 6683 ~ 3076 1.79
28.0 ~ 30.1 3076 ~ 1791 10.10
30.1 ~ 32.0 1791 ~ 1096 22.00
32.0 ~ 34.0 1096 ~ 655 27.69
34.0 ~ 36.1 655 ~ 380 19.27
36.1 ~ 38.3 380 ~ 216 9.75
38.3 ~ 40.0 216 ~ 139 6.93
40.0 ~ 45.0 139 ~ 38 2.49

Summary: The molecular weight of the sample is primarily concentrated between 655 and 1791 Dalton, which accounts for 49.69% of the total distribution.
