GAS CHROMATOGRAPHIC SEPARATION OF LOW MOLECULAR WEIGHT FLUOROCARBONS,

Abstract

Application of gas-solid chromatography techniques to the separation of low molecular weight fluorocarbons incorporates a number of advantages over previous analysis techniques. These advantages include isothermal operation up to 200C, elimination of substrate bleed, stability of the base line, minimum retention times and convenience. The relative retention volumes with respect to perfluoroethane of a number of low molecular weight fluorocarbons as a function of column support material and operating conditions are reported. The separation of a number of important species which are formed during the thermal oxidation of low molecular weight fluorocarbons are also discussed. (Author)
