Abstract
A phenomenon was found whereby the application of an alternating voltage to a capillary column can vary the capacity factor of a sample solute. The alternating voltage-induced variation in the capacity factor was studied using an anion exchange mini-bed (a short capillary column 12 mm long). The capacity factor varied according to both the amplitude and frequency of an applied alternating voltage. The variation greatly depended on the kinds of sample solutes and packing materials. A new separation mode for capillary electrochromatography using an alternating voltage, that is, alternating voltage capillary electrochromatography (AV-CEC), was proposed as an application of this phenomenon to control the retention of a sample solute. The chromatographic behavior of three organic acids (benzoic acid, phthalic acid, and salicylic acid) was studied in AV-CEC using an anion exchange column.
