Physicochemical measurements by the reversed-flow version of inverse gas chromatography.
Since the first publication on the method, reversed-flow gas chromatography has been used to "separate" physicochemical quantities by measuring the value of one in the presence of another. The experimental arrangement consists of a small modification of a commercial gas chromatograph, so that it includes a four- or six-port gas sampling valve, and a simple cell placed inside the chromatographic oven. This cell suppresses the effects of the carrier gas flow on the physicochemical phenomena taking place in the stationary phase. These phenomena pertain to chemical kinetics, diffusion in gases, liquids and surfaces, mass transfer across gas-liquid and gas-solid boundaries, local adsorption on heterogeneous solid surfaces, etc.
