Title: High-pressure liquid chromatography: a brief introduction and its application in analyzing the degradation of a C-ether (Thio-ether) liquid lubricant

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6613628

The general principles of classical liquid chromatography and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) are reviewed, and their advantages and disadvantages are compared. Several chromatographic techniques are reviewed, and the analytical separation of a C-ether liquid lubricant by each technique is illustrated. A practical application of HPLC is then demonstrated by analyzing a degraded C-ether liquid lubricant from full scale, high temperature bearing tests.
