Fractions boiling as lo\v as 20° C. or as high as 350° C. can be quantitatively separated and collected. T h e volatile materials are separated by a, helium gas stream flowing through a specially packed column of Celite wet with a high boiling point oil. As each separated component leaves the column, it passes through a highly sensitive thermal conductivity cell, which relays voltage differences to an electronic strip chart recorder. T h e d a t a are presented as a plot of thermal conductivity versus time. T h e a m o u n t and boiling point of
