Subject: Re: HPLC - degassing
Wagner,
We tried to switch Ar for He on a Beckman 6300 AAA analyzer once because
we did not have another He tank. We had lots of problems. The reason we
came up with was the solubility curve vs temp. for He is unique compared
to other gasses, if I am remembering this correctly.
