This outstanding guide introduces centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC) for any biphasic system;offering in-depth coverage of instrumentation, theory, liquid-liquid partition coefficients, and CPC in organic and inorganic chemistry. Contains over 80 diagrams for three-solvent systems that can be applied to virtually all partitioning, separation, and purification situations! Written by international experts from North America, Europe, and Japan, Centrifugal Partition Chromatography examines chromatographic properties, illustrates practical operations, and gives examples of CPC solutions to real experimental problems highlights the distinction between CPC and high-performance liquid chromatography explains hydrostatic, hydrodynamic, and overall pressure drops discusses solvent systems, strategies for solvent selection, and the elution mode in CPC shows how to design solvent systems for CPC of complex organic mixtures describes carrier-aided CPC for preparative-scale separations and the use of CPC as a multistage liquid-membrane transport system and much more!
