Notes:
The preparation of charcoal porous layer open tabular (PLOT) columns, and their application to the separation of permanent gases and light hydrocarbons are reported. Two types of charcoal, coconut and darco charcoal, were used to prepare columns from fused silica capillaries. The performance of these columns was compared to that of a commercially available carbon molecular sieve PLOT column. The coconut charcoal PLOT column produced good retention and resolution for both permanent gases and light hydrocarbons; all separations were achieved in less than eight minutes under isothermal conditions. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
