Summary
The thermodynamic description of the capacity factor (k′), the most widely used retention parameter, is presented. The connection of the thermodynamic adsorption equilibrium constant (K) and the retention parameters are shown. Methods for dead volume determination are described. A general thermodynamic approach of the chromatographic processes is described.
