Supercritical Fluid Supercritical Fluid Chromatography Chromatography
Supercritical fluids Occur above a critical temperature
and a critical pressure, Show both gaseous and liquid
properties for Density Diffusion coefficient and Viscosity
Are very good solvents Are frequently cheap, innocuous, non-
toxic Can easily be removed by evaporation Give GC/LC hybrid behaviour – make
great mobile phasesSFC is particularly useful for analytes that are: Non-volatile Easily thermally-decomposed and/or Unsuitable for spectroscopic or electrochemical detectionand thus cannot be analysed by GC or HPLC

Supercritical Fluid Supercritical Fluid Chromatography Chromatography
Mobile:Stationary phase equilibriumDependent on partition, strongly influenced by solvation power of the supercritical fluid
Instrumentation: modified HPLC equipment: Thermostatted column oven Back-pressure device between column and detector (narrow capillary at end of column) Detection may be conducted in gas phase
Mobile Phase Any supercritical fluid (commonly CO2, N2O, NH3, 1-Butane)CO2 becomes supercritical at T>31ºC, P>7400KPa
Stationary Phase Variety, generally “cannibalised” from HPLC or GC May be packed (like HPLC) Or open-tubular siloxane coated (like GC)

Supercritical Fluid Supercritical Fluid Chromatography Chromatography
Retention and Resolution Quicker than HPLC N similar to that for GC Suffers from band broadening (diffusion) like GC
Optimisation: Pressure gives solvent power and thus RT . e.g.(Hexadecane at 70atm RT=25min, 90 atm RT=5min). May use gradient or isobaric elution. Temperature (for similar reasons) Organic modifiers (e.g. MeOH)
Detection Often uses HPLC detectors (UV etc) SFC allows easy interface with MS or IR Also allows use of Flame Ionisation Detector (FID) Eluent easily removed for further analysis
ApplicationsWide range including: Drugs, foods, pesticides, polymers, surfactants….
