  • The diffusion coefficient of propane in helium

    Creator:
    Tang, Fa-tai
    Abstract:
    A specially designed gas chromatograph with both TCD and FID has been tested for the measurement of the diffusion coefficients of methane and propane in helium. Knox's arrested elution technique(⁴) was used and yielded a value of 0.6431 cm²/sec averaged with the value obtained by Yang and Hawkes(⁷). Values of...

  • Diffusion of n-alkanes in polydimethylsilicones

    Creator:
    Millen, William George
    Abstract:
    Diffusion of short chain n-alkanes was found to be faster in the polydimethylsilicone elastomer SE-30 than in the polydimethylsilicone oil SF-96-2000. The opposite was true for the longer chain n-alkanes suggesting that choice of stationary phase for gas chromatography would depend on the chain length of sample components. The dependence...

  • Classification of stationary liquids in gas chromatography by infrared spectrophotometry

    Creator:
    De Briceno, Maria Betania Orduz
    Abstract:
    A classification of stationary liquids by infrared spectroscopy to evaluate the polarity was made using the solvent effect technique. The infrared C-Cl absorption frequency shift was measured for solutions of 1-chlorohexane dissolved in each stationary phase. These frequency shifts were correlated to the relative retention times of 1-octene/n-octane, trans-2-octene/n-octane and...

  • Diffusion in silicone polymers

    Creator:
    Kong, Ming J.
    Abstract:
    The study of diffusion coefficients of n-alkanes and other organic compounds in silicones is undertaken by gas-liquid chromatography. About 0. 3% of stationary phase is coated on glass bead support so that the only significant source of peak spreading is due to slow liquid phase mass transfer. Diffusion coefficients are...

  • The obstructive factor in gas chromatography

    Creator:
    Thumneum, Pornpan
    Abstract:
    The study of the obstructive factor by Hawkes (11) showed a relation between the obstructive factor and velocity using a continuous method. Later, Bowers and Hawkes (12) developed a similar method with some improvements in the apparatus and found out that the obstructive factor was not flow dependent. This study...

  • Classification of stationary phases in gas chromatography

    Creator:
    Chong, Elee Elizabeth
    Abstract:
    Ultraviolet spectroscopy and dispersive solubility parameters correlated to the ratios of retention times have proven valuable in classification of gas chromatography stationary phases by the donor-acceptor properties. Iodine was directly dissolved into stationary phases and the absorption frequency shift of complexes was correlated with the carbon tetrachloride/chloroform retention ratio on...

  • Slow processes in gas-solid chromatography

    Creator:
    Burns, Walter Frederick
    Abstract:
    Gas-solid chromatography often has asymmetrical elution peaks. This is attributed to nonlinear isotherms, multi-energy adsorption sites, and slow processes. This study utilized a stopflow gas chromatograph with various NaOH and NaCl modified aluminas as adsorbents and methane as adsorbate to determine the influence of surface area and pore volume distribution...
