Abstract

The most popular eluents for SCIC are organic acids and their salts with one or more kinds of ion taking part in the elution process. These ions compete for ion-exchange equilibria. After an injection, the equilibria are disturbed and a re-equilibration process occurs resulting in extraneous peaks (system peak). A mechanism based on these aspects is proposed which is used successfully in the interpretation of the effects of sample properties and eluent parameters on system peaks. Experiments in the analysis of both cations and anions have been carried out to support this mechanism with eluents comprising two kinds of eluent ions. An equation for capacity factors in such systems is also derived.
