Orthogonal Selectivity for Separation of Light and Heavy Petroleum Hydrocarbons by 2D GC using Zebron™ ZB-1HT Inferno™ and ZB-35HT Inferno GC Columns; TN-2085

Abstract:

Complex sample mixtures, such as petroleum hydrocarbon fractions, require a detailed separation of the individual organic compound types. A traditional GC approach will lead to multiple coelutions, however in this present work a 2D GC approach was utilized to explore the multi-dimensional separation of complex light and heavier hydrocarbons. The combination of Zebron ZB-1HT Inferno with ZB-35HT Inferno provides a high temperature capability to further elute all the fractions and to provide a targeted complementary orthogonal selectivity that separates individual aliphatic and aromatic analytes from each other.
