Abstract

A method which provides a simple means for the determination of individual compounds which gave overlapping peaks on a gas chromatogram is described. It utilizes the adsorption property of the electric field applied liquid crystal column previously reported: under a constant electric field, the amounts of compounds adsorbed are independent of the amounts injected. The sample volume vs. response curves exhibit inflection points, theoretically predicted. Similar curves obtained experimentally for binary and ternary overlapping systems were exactly as predicted. Also, the amounts of individual compounds determined experimentally were in good agreement with those calculated from the theoretical curves.
