Abstract
A procedure based on curve fitting techniques for the calculation of the retention data in linear programmed-temperature gas chromatography was applied in order to calculate the elution temperature of fifteen polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons on a DB- 5 capillary column. The linear programmed-temperature retention data were calculated with a BASIC program starting from isothermal retention times and the calculated values were compared with experimental data. For five different linear temperature programmes the accuracy expressed as fractional difference was always better than 1% in spite of the simplifications introduced in the calculation methods.
