Molecular weight distributions for polypropylene samples have been determined by a permeation fractionation method (GPC). Porous silica beads were used as a packing material for the columns. The set of columns allows a good separation of the polypropylene macromolecular chains in a range of molecular weights from 5000 to 1.5 × 10 6 , and the thermal and mechanical stabilities of these beads are very good. The calibration has been carried out with fractions of polypropylene of narrow molecular weight distribution prepared by a large‐scale column fractionation. The molecular weights M̄ w and M̄ n and the ratios M̄ w / M̄ n calculated from the GPC curves show, in general, good agreement with the ones calculated from the column fractionation curves. However, the M̄ w / M̄ n ratios are always highter in the case of GPC fractionation. This could be due to diffusion phenomena.
