Microquantitative Infra-Red Analysis: Application to Gas Chromatographic Fractions

Abstract

THE need to study infra-red absorption spectra of small quantities of sample has led to the development of new micro-sampling devices and techniques. These have been particularly useful in the qualitative identification of gas chromatographic fractions. Their use has now been extended to quantitative analysis of unresolved chromatographic fractions.
