Abstract

A cross-linked porous styrene polymer has been used for chromatographic separation of various classes of organic compounds and its properties have been compared with those of Chromosorb 101 and Porapak Q. This polymer shows higher initial decomposition temperatures than Chromosorb 101 and Porapak Q. Its usefulness as a column packing for gas chromatography has been estimated from polarities, numbers of theoretical plates, resolutions and retention times for various organic mixtures. Besides hydrocarbons, alcohols, carboxylic acids and ketones, the new column packing could be used for separation of amines.
