Description

A new type of gas chromatograph for quantitative measurements of hydrogen isotopes mixture has been developed through the adoption of catalytic oxidation type detector. Experiments using He as the carrier gas were successfully performed for the separation of D2-HD and H2-HD-D2 mixtures. The minimum detection limits were 0.4 -- 0.9 μl-STP for these components. The linear calibration curves were obtained in the range of 10 μl-STP -- 20 ml-STP. The sensitivities for H2, HD and D2 were 843, 774, and 654 (μl-STP)-1, respectively. The maximum time needed for the analysis was about 16 min. (author)
