Abstract: | A high-temperature liquid chromatographic technique is employed for the separation of commercially available polymer additives to enhance the resolution and speed. Separation efficiencies and elution behaviors for seven phthalate plasticizers and five antioxidants are evaluated at elevated column temperatures and with a thermal gradient. Diamondbond C18 (octadecylsilica), Zirchrom PS (zirconia-based polystyrene), and Zirchrom PBD (zirconia-based polybutadiene) columns are selected for the study because of their thermal stability. The temperature programming is controlled with a column oven in conjunction with an independent mobile phase preheater and a post-column effluent cooling assembly. Van't Hoff plots show that the reverse-phase liquid chromatography mechanism is maintained over a wide range of column temperatures. A 1% increase of acetonitrile in the mobile phase is estimated to have a comparable effect as a 7-7.5 degrees C column temperature increase on the retention time changes. |
