What is Super Critical Fluid??Supercritical fluid is a state of matter that is intermediate between a gas and liquid in its
properties. This state formed when a gas or liquid solvent is subjected to temperature
and pressure condition exceeding a particular critical point. The temperature and
pressure at which this point occurs are known as the Critical Temperature and Critical
Pressure and are characteristic of the solvent. Beyond this point , the solvent will be
neither a gas nor a liquid , but will possess the properties of both phases. Whether this
supercritical fluid acts more like a gas or liquid will depend on the pressure as well as
temperature.

Supercritical Fluid ExtractionOften the analysis of complex materials requires as a preliminary step separation of the analyte or analytesform a sample matrix. Ideally, an analytical separation method should be rapid, simple and inexpensive; should give quantitative recovery of analytes without loss or degradation; should yield a solution of the analyte this is sufficiently concentrated to permit the final measurement to be made without the need for concentration; and should generate little or no laboratory wastes that have to be disposed of.

Supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) is a hybrid of gas and liquid chromatography that combines some of the best features of each. Supercritical fluid chromatography is of importance because it permits the separation and determination of a group of compounds that are not conveniently handled by either gas liquid or liquid chromatography
Supercritical Fluid Chromatography
![Page 16: Super Critical Fluid Separation Process](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042701/55a5e6c91a28ab62788b46b3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Theory of SFCProperties of liquid, gases and supercritical fluids are shown belowSincesupercritical fluids have properties between those of gases and liquid, their use as a mobile phase offers several advantages. Typical physical

SL 0.3-0.9 10-3 ~10-4 10-3 ~10-

Liquid 1 <10-5 10-2
a. One of advantages is that supercritical fluid have lower densities and viscosities than liquids. This results in larger diffusion coefficients for solutes is SFCthan LC. This results in Better efficiencies and higher optimum linear Velocities in SFC than LC. The plate height of a SFC System is given by the van Deemter equation.
H = A + B/u + Cu
![Page 17: Super Critical Fluid Separation Process](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042701/55a5e6c91a28ab62788b46b3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
b. SFs have higher densities than gas, so that mobile phase has a greater chance of interacting with the solute than that in GC (i.e., carrier gas). This makes the mobile phase important in determining the retention of solutes on the system and give more flexibility in optimizing the separation. For example, retention of solutes in SFC can be changed by using a different column (i.e. different stationary phases) as in GC, or by changing the mobile phase strength as in LC.
![Page 18: Super Critical Fluid Separation Process](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042701/55a5e6c91a28ab62788b46b3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
c. One major advantage of SFC is its ability to use detector available for either GC or LC, such as FID, UV-Vis, and Fluorescence detectors. This gives it a wide range of both universal and selective detections for use in either analytical or preparative-scale work.
LC detectors:
Thermal conductivity detector (TCD): 10-7 M (103-fold range)
Flame Ionization detector (FID): 10-10 M (a 105-fold range)Nitrogen-phosporus detector (NPD): 10-10 M (a 106-fold range)
Electron capture detector (ECD): 10-14 ~ 10-16 M (a 103- 104 fold range)
Flame photometric detector(FPD):10-14 M (P, S)

d. Depending on which supercritical fluid is used, it is also possible to use SFC at lower T than GC. This makes it more useful in the separation of thermally unstable compounds.
e. The stationary phases used in SFC can be similar to those in LC as well as GC. Either packed or open-tubular columns may be used.
Because of these advantages, SFC is commonly viewed as a technique which is complementary to both LC and GC.
5. Instrumentationa. Instrumentation for SFC can be obtained commercially or adapting system used for either LC and GC.

b. The main difference of a SFC
than a LC or GC system is the
need to control bother
temperature and pressure of
mobile phase. This must be done
to keep the mobile phase as a
Supercritical fluid. Control of
the pressure (density) of the
supercritical fluid can also used to vary strength of mobile
phase during the gradient elution in SFC .
