Chromatography is a complex phenomenon, which results from the superimposition of a number of different effects. A mobile phase percolates through a bed of porous particles. It carries the components of a mixture that interact to different degrees with the stationary phase. These components diffuse in and out of the particles, undergo molecular interactions with the stationary phase or form transient chemical bonds with it, and are eventually swept out of the colimm. Fluid dynamics, mass transfer phenomena, and equilibriiun thermodynamics play an [Pg.19]
