Měření vnitřní difuze pomocí kapalinové chromatografie

Liquid chromatography setup was used in liquid diffusion studies. The Kubin-Kucera model was employed for mathematical description of processes inside the chromatographic column. Effective diffusivities were evaluated by time-domain fitting chromatographic response peaks of columns packed with tested porous particles. Axial dispersion coefficients were determined independently by analysis of response peaks of columns packed with nonporous pellets; this improved significantly the confidence of effective diffusion coefficients. An attempt was made to exclude the end effects of chromatographic columns by analyzing response peaks of pairs of columns differing by lengths
