We present an investigation into the influence of carrier gas on the thermodynamics governing a capillary gas chromatographic separation. Thermodynamic parameters are estimated for a series of alkanes and alcohols on three common stationary phases using helium, hydrogen, and nitrogen carrier gases. It is shown that the substitution of carrier gases for one another results in a change in the thermodynamic parameters governing the separation. The effect of the carrier gas on the thermodynamic parameters is large enough to compromise the accuracy of the retention time calculations based on thermodynamic parameters collected in a carrier gas other than the one actually in use in a specific gas chromatographic system. A possible kinetic explanation for these observations is also investigated.
