Notes:
The behavior of heavy solutes present in a sample injected on the precolumn has not been clarified in on-column injection onto gas chromatograph having a capillary column coupled to an uncoated precolumn in an oven. To investigate this point, an on-column gas chromatograph has been developed which is constructed with a heatable precolumn outside the oven. Some experiments were carried out in order to evaluate the performance. As a result, it was found that heavy solutes reach the first part of the main capillary column after the solvent has gone, resulting in sharp peaks without solvent effects. The reason why sharp peaks appear for the heavy solutes is also discussed. The cold-trapping effect has been shown to play an important role in narrowing the band width of the heavy solutes. Some of the advantages of the gas chromatograph developed are also presented.
