Abstract: | Summary It has been shown 1, 2] that the compressibility correction factor equals the ratio of gas pressure at the column outlet
to the average pressure in the column,j=p
o
/p
c
, and, therefore, by multiplying by this factor, all experimentally measured retention volumes and flow rates are converted
from ambient pressure to the average pressure in the column. This makes retention volumes corrected in this way independent
of pressure. In contrast, correcting retention times for gas compressibility has no physical meaning and terms such as “corrected
retention time” and “net retention time” should not be used. Similarly, recalculating corrected retention volumes to a standard
temperature of 273 K appears to provide a thermodynamically sound basis for comparison of data obtained at different temperatures.
In reality, it distorts actual relationships and should not be used.
