The master retention equation of the solvation parameter model relating the above processes to experimentally quantifiable contributions from all possible intermolecular interactions was presented in section 1.4.3. The system constants in the model (see Eq. 1.7 or 1.7a) convey all information of the ability of the stationary phase to participate in solute-solvent intermolecular interactions. The r constant refers to the ability of the stationary phase to interact with solute n- or jr-electron pairs. The s constant establishes the ability of the stationary phase to take part in dipole-type interactions. The a constant is a measure of stationary phase hydrogen-bond basicity and the b constant stationary phase hydrogen-bond acidity. The / constant incorporates contributions from stationary phase cavity formation and solute-solvent dispersion interactions. The system constants for some common packed column stationary phases are summarized in Table 2.6 [68,81,103,104,113]. Further values for non-ionic stationary phases [114,115], liquid organic salts [68,116], cyclodextrins [117], and lanthanide chelates dissolved in a poly(dimethylsiloxane) [118] are summarized elsewhere. 

The calculation of the ground-state geometry and electronic structure proceeds by an interlaced iteration of the Kohn-Sham equations and the ionic stationary conditions. The Kohn-Sham equations were solved by a damped gradient iteration method and the ionic configuration was iterated with a simulated annealing technique, using a Metropolis algorithm. 

Even though the catalyst may be only partially converted to H B", the concentration of these ions may be on the order of 10 times greater than the concentration of free radicals in the corresponding stationary state of the radical mechanism. Likewise, kp for ionic polymerization is on the order of 100 times larger than the sum of the constants for all termination and transfer steps. By contrast, kp/kj which is pertinent for the radical mechanism, is typically on the order of 10. These comparisons illustrate that ionic polymerizations occur very fast even at low temperatures.

The two examples that have been given are simple and basic, and illustrate the principles of a TLC separation. Ion exchange material can also be bonded to the silica, allowing ionic interactions to be dominant in the stationary phase and, thus. 

Deionized water can be used as an eluent for the analysis of nonionic polymers such as pullulan and polyethylene glycol. However, in most cases, salt solutions or buffer solutions are used to decrease ionic or other interactions between samples and the stationary phase or to prevent sample association (Eigs. 6.22 and 6.23, pages 196 and 197). 

In the development of a SE-HPLC method the variables that may be manipulated and optimized are the column (matrix type, particle and pore size, and physical dimension), buffer system (type and ionic strength), pH, and solubility additives (e.g., organic solvents, detergents). Once a column and mobile phase system have been selected the system parameters of protein load (amount of material and volume) and flow rate should also be optimized. A beneficial approach to the development of a SE-HPLC method is to optimize the multiple variables by the use of statistical experimental design. Also, information about the physical and chemical properties such as pH or ionic strength, solubility, and especially conditions that promote aggregation can be applied to the development of a SE-HPLC assay. Typical problems encountered during the development of a SE-HPLC assay are protein insolubility and column stationary phase... 

There is usually an ionic strength above which there is no more effect on hydrodynamic size or, worse yet, there are hydrophobic interactions of the polymer with the stationary phase. Thus, the optimum 1 is usually at the low 1 end of the plateau of size vs 1. This concentration will minimize ionic strength effects while also minimizing wear on the pump seals and pistons. 

In a series of papers published throughout the 1980s, Colin Poole and his co-workers investigated the solvation properties of a wide range of alkylammonium and, to a lesser extent, phosphonium salts. Parameters such as McReynolds phase constants were calculated by using the ionic liquids as stationary phases for gas chromatography and analysis of the retention of a variety of probe compounds. However, these analyses were found to be unsatisfactory and were abandoned in favour of an analysis that used Abraham s solvation parameter model [5]. 

Finally, none of the ionic liquids were found to be hydrogen bond acids [5], although this may well be a consequence of the salts selected, none of which had a cation that would be expected to act as a hydrogen bond donor. Earlier qualitative measurements on ionic liquid stationary phases of mono-, di-, and trialkylammo-nium salts suggest that hydrogen bond donation can be important where a potentially acidic proton is available [7-9]. More recent work, with [BMIM] salts, also indicates that these ionic liquids should be considered to be hydrogen bond donor solvents [10]. However, this has yet to be quantified.

It is possible that the stationary-state situations leading to an active ion transport occur only in localized regions of the membrane, i.e., at ATPase molecule units with diameters of about 50 A and a length of 80 A. The vectorial ion currents at locations with a mixed potential and special equipotential lines would appear phenomenologically like ionic channels. If the membrane area where the passive diffusion occurs is large, it may determine the rest potential of the whole cell.
