Abstract
The chromatographic behavior of a group of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in micellar liquid chromatography with a C1 column and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide and n-propanol or n-butanol as hybrid mobile phases is studied. Four equations, proposed in the literature, correlating the retention parameter (e.g., Log k' or 1/k'), surfactant concentration, and alcohol percentage were checked.
