Carrier Gas Selection in Residual Solvent Tests Faster Analysis with Hydrogen Carrier Gas

The gas species used for analysis are recorded in the acquired data le, ensuring data integrity.
Hydrogen can be a safe and highly effective carrier gas. As a highly ef cient carrier gas with a at Van Deemter curve, it maintains
its separation ef ciency across a wide linear velocity range. This makes it both a good substitute for Helium and also a great
