Separation of Hydrohalocarbons and Chlorofluorocarbons Using a Cyclodextrin Gas Solid Chromatography Capillary Column

Chromatographic analysis of very volatile hydrohalocarbons and chlorofluorocarbons has proved to be a difficult task due to the generally poor retention of these compounds on commercially available wall coated open tubular capillary columns.
