Ion Chromatography
INTRODUCTION
The term Ion Exchange Chromatography or Ion Chromatography (IC) is a subdivision of High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC).A general definition of ion chromatography can be applied as follows: “ion chromatography includes all rapid liquid chromatography separations of ions in columns coupled online with detection and quantification in a flow-through detector.”A stoichiometric chemical reaction occurs between ions in a solution and a solid substance carrying functional groups that can fix ions as a result of electrostatic forces. In anion chromatography these are quaternary ammonium groups. In theory, ions with the same charge can be exchanged completely reversibly between the two phases. The process of ion exchange leads to a condition of equilibrium; the side to which the equilibrium lies depends on the affinity of the participating ions to the functional groups of the stationary phases.
