posted on 2017-12-21, 11:16 authored by Simon CocksThere has been considerable interest in the field
of Supercritical Fluid Chromatography (SFC) and it is fast
becoming recognised as a very useful analytical tool,
offering the speed of separation found with gas
chromatography (GC) with the solvating power of high
performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
The mechanism of retention in SFC is unclear and a
number of competing interactions can be considered to be
occurring. studies into the retention of test solutes
exhibiting a variety of functional groups in different
systems have been carried out using a simple home-made SFC
system constructed using a pye-Unicam GC oven and a HPLC
pump. [Continues.]
