Abstract:

The experiment of separating low toxic n-hexane and cyclohexane by traditional gas chromatography was improved with orthogonal experimental design. The effect of sample quantity, vaporization chamber temperature, detector temperature, column temperature, line velocity and separability of the split ratio were examined. Through the experiment, students could understand the use and maintenance of gas chromatography instruments. At the same time, they could understand separability and column efficiency of chromatography.

Key words: Gas chromatography, Orthogonal experimental design, n-Hexane, Cyclohexane
