Inverse Gas Chromatography Characterization of Polymers and Other Materials
N
o other single reference covers this rela tively new subject area so completely! As an extension of conventional gas chromatography, inverse gas chromatography (IGC) has many advantages—simplicity, speed of data collection, accuracy, and low operating costs. This one volume offers an in-depth look into the most recent advances in theoretical and practical aspects of this approach. Twenty-two chapters provide information on: • instrumentation and methodology • characterization of vapor-polymer systems • polymer-polymer systems • surfaces and interfaces • analytical applications • application of IGC in coal characterization and food science
