Stationary Phases in Gas Chromatography

Stationary Phases in Gas Chromatography is a four-chapter book that begins with a description of chromatographic column, including its retention parameters; mobile and stationary phases; optimization of its process; and types of column in gas chromatography. Subsequent chapter focuses on the retention data and thermodynamic variables in the technique. The last two chapters report the different types of stationary phases in gas chromatography, as well as their selectivity.
