Good day everyone.
I am glad to be part of this platform.

How can we explain the elution of heavy Hydrocarbon components (C60-C100) from a GC with maximum temperature of 450oC and Column with maximum temperature of 430oC?. Given that the boiling point temperatures of these heavy components are above 500oC.

Thank you.
Hello

I would really appreciate your response.

Thank you.
You do not need to be at the boiling point to have a compound in the vapor phase. Think evaporation for example.

Best regards,
