Summary
The behaviour of mercury sulfide (metacinnabarite) as an adsorbent in gas-solid chromatography was investigated. Adsorption of some aliphatic, alicyclic, chlorimated and aromatic hydrocarbons and acetone is discussed in the light of adsorbate-adsorbent interactions. For the organic compounds used, thermodynamic parameters were determined and discussed in terms of the specific reactions that may take place on the adsorbent surface. Experimental data obtained show that mercury sulfide can be successfully employed as an adsorbent in analytical gas-solid chromatography.
