title: Emergence temperature indices and relative retention times of pesticides and industrial chemicals determined by linear programmed temperature gas chromatography.
abstract: Emergence temperature indices and relative retention times of nearly 600 pesticides and industrial chemicals are sequentially tabulated to provide a basis for the identification of unknowns detected on methyl silicone columns when programmed temperature gas chromatography is used. A technique of normalizing column parameters is described to enable duplication of the tabulated data on columns which have different dimensions, amount of stationary phase, and/or other operating parameters. Suggestions for enhancing the precision with which these data can be reproduced on other equipment are presented.
