In a gas chromatogram (plot of eluent rise and fall versus time), the width of the base (time duration) of a symmetrical peak (rise and fall) of eluent.
Industry:Chemistry
Apparatus to measure the change in the dielectric constant of gases or gas mixtures; used as a detector in gas chromatographs to sense changes in carrier gas.
Industry:Chemistry
1. An instrument equipped with a filter system or other simple dispersing system to measure the absorption of nearly monochromatic radiation in the visible range by a gas or a liquid, and so determine the concentration of the absorbing constituents in the gas or liquid. 2. A device for regulating the thickness of a liquid in spectrophotometry.
Industry:Chemistry
Glass spheres coated with a thin layer of ion-exchange resin, used in liquid chromatography.
Industry:Chemistry
Apparatus for precise and simultaneous measurement of both the boiling temperature of a liquid and the condensation temperature of the vapors of the boiling liquid.
Industry:Chemistry
Chemical analysis of a gas or a liquid by measurement of the peak electromagnetic absorption wavelengths that are unique to a specific material or element.
Industry:Chemistry
Insoluble matter that can be separated from used lubricating oil in solution in n-pentane; may include resinous bitumens produced from the oxidation of oil and fuel; used in an American Society for Testing and Material test.
Industry:Chemistry
Technique of polarographic analysis which measures the difference in current flowing between two identical dropping-mercury electrodes at the same potential but in different solutions.
Industry:Chemistry
The constant a in the Beer’s law relation A _ abc, where A is the absorbance, b the path length, and c the concentration of solution. Also known as absorptive power. Formerly known as absorbency index; absorption constant; extinction coefficient.
Industry:Chemistry
Determination of the average size of fine particles in a fluid (gas or liquid) by passing the mixture through a powder bed of known dimensions and recording the pressure drop and flow rate through the bed.
