摘要:
Method and apparatus for generating an acid or base, e.g. for chromatographic analysis of anions. For generating a base the method includes the steps of providing a cation source in a cation source reservoir, flowing an aqueous liquid stream through a base generation chamber separated from the cation source reservoir by a barrier (e.g. a charged membrane) substantially preventing liquid flow while providing a cation transport bridge, applying an electric potential between an anode cation source reservoir and a cathode in the base generation chamber to electrolytically generate hydroxide ions therein and to cause cations in the cation source reservoir to electromigrate and to be transported across the barrier toward the cathode to combine with the transported cations to form cation hydroxide, and removing the cation hydroxide in an aqueous liquid stream as an effluent from the first base generation chamber. Suitable cation sources include a salt solution, a cation hydroxide solution or cation exchange resin.
摘要:
Apparatus for accurately metering liquid flow based on the injection of a brief heat pulse into the flowing stream, e.g., via a miniature thermistor, and detection of an electronic time derivative of temperature downstream with, e.g., a second microprobe thermistor. This detection triggers a subsequent heat pulse and the cycle repeats, wth pulse total corresponding to elapsed liquid throughput, and pulse frequency to flow rate.
摘要:
An ion exchange composition comprising an insoluble substrate of a synthetic resin having ion exchanging sites at least on its available surface; and a finely divided, insoluble material comprising synthetic resin particles of from about 0.1 to about 5 microns median diameter (with respect to volume) having, at least on their outer surfaces, ion exchanging sites which attract the ion exchanging sites of the substrate, irreversibly attached as a monolayer to the available surface of the substrate. The composition is used for removal and separation of ions, and is especially useful in liquid ion exchange chromatography. For example, a chromatographic separation of halide ions is effected with high speed and resolution by contacting an aqueous solution thereof with a bed of the ion exchange composition which consists of surface sulfonated resin beads of a styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer to the surface of which is irreversibly attached a monolayer of quaternary ammonium-bearing styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer resin particles in the hydroxy form, and then eluting the bed with an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution.
摘要:
A process for high performance, cation-exchange chromatography employing a cation-exchange composition comprising synthetic resin particles of about 5 to about 200 microns particle size, said synthetic resin particles being cross-linked to from about 0.25 to about 5% and surface-sulfonated to a calculated depth of about 100 to about 300 Angstroms is disclosed.
摘要:
A degas assembly including a low pressure fluid channel for carrying a wash fluid at a first pressure, a pressurized channel for carrying eluent including a gas at a second pressure higher than the first pressure, and a degas separator defining a fluid barrier between the low pressure fluid channel and pressurized fluid channel, the separator configured to retain liquid in the pressurized fluid channel and allow gas to flow through the separator to the low pressure fluid channel. The pressurized fluid channel may extend along an outer periphery of the low pressure fluid channel. The eluent may be received from an eluent generator at a pressure of at least about 3300 psi, and in various embodiments up to about 5000 psi. A liquid chromatography system and method are also disclosed.

摘要:
Colloidal particles are fractionated by size and dissolved polymers are fractionated by molecular weight by passing a polar solvent dispersion containing one or both through a bed of surface-bonded particles wherein the particles consist of a nonswellable inert core with a polar solvent-swellable surface coating of bonded organic polymer. The core can be either an insoluble cross-linked organic polymer gel or an inorganic solid such as silica or alumina.
