Abstract

Abstract The invention relates to a gas-liquid chromatography system utilizing, as the packing material, a coated synthetic molecular sieve having a pore diameter of less than 13 angstrom units. The packing is particularly useful with aqueous samples as the packing removes the water peak from the chromatogram.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 99 words
A separation process which comprises passing a gaseous test sample containing water and complex organic compounds through a gas-liquid chromatography column packed with a packing composition characterized with means for eliminating water peaks from chromatographs, said means consisting of a substantially uniform coating of a liquid phase adsorbed on synthetic molecular sieve packing having a pore diameter of less than 13 angstrom units and a sieve particle size of from about 40 to about 150 mesh; generating signals for components forming the test sample absent a signal for water; and recording the generated signals as peaks on a chromatograph.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 99 words
