• Principles
Partition of molecules between gas (mobile phase) and liquid (stationary phase).

Most Common Stationary Phases
1. Separation of mixture of polar compoundsCarbowax 20M (polyethylene glycol)
2. Separation of mixtures of non-polar compoundsOV101 or SE-30 (polymer of methylsilicone)
3. Methylester of fatty acidsDEGS (diethylene glycol succinate)

Detector
• Flame Ionization Detector (Nanogram - ng)
High temperature of hydrogen flame (H2 +O2 + N2)
ionizes compounds eluted from column into flame. The ions collected on collector or electrode and were recorded on recorder due to electric current.

Measures the changes of thermal conductivity due to the sample (g). Sample can be recovered.

Thermal Conductivity Detector
Principal: The thermal balance of a heated filament
Electrical power is converted to heat in a filament and the temperature will climb until heat power loss form the filament equals the electrical power input.
The filament may loose heat by radiation to a cooler surface by conduction to the molecules which contact with the filament.

Thermal Conductivity Basics
When the carrier gas is contaminated by sample , the cooling effect of the gas changes. The difference in cooling is used to generate the detector signal.
The TCD is a nondestructive, concentration sensing detector. A heated filament is cooled by the flow of carrier gas.

When a separated compound elutes from the column , the thermal conductivity of the mixture of carrier gas and compound gas is lowered. The filament in the sample column becomes hotter than the control column.
The imbalance between control and sample filament temeprature is measured by a simple gadget and a signal is recorded

• Responds to all compounds
• Adequate sensitivity for many compounds
• Good linear range of signal
• Simple construction
• Signal quite stable if carrier gas glow rate, block temperature, and filament power are effectively controlled
• Nondestructive detection

Electron Capture Detector
Analyses for pesticide, Insecticides, vinyl chloride, and fluorocarbons in foods.
Most sensitive detector (10-12 gram)

Electron Capture Detector
ECD detects positive ions of carrier gas by the anode electrode.
63Ni emits particles.
Ionization : N2 (Carrier gas) + (e) = N2+ + 2e. The N2
+ establish a “base line”
X (F, Cl and Br) containing sample + (e) X-
Ion recombination: X- + N2+ = X + N2, The “base line” due to the
N2+ will decrease and this decrease constitutes the signal.
The more the halogen containing X compounds in the sample, the less the N2
+ in the detector
