Summary
The transport processes of components in capillary electrochromatographic column was investigated based on the basic model of relaxation theory. A principal transport equation of chromatographic relaxation theory was established and mathematical expressions for eluting curves were obtained under the situations of both capillary electrophoresis and chromatography. Characteristics of peak symmetry and its effecting factors are discussed. Tailing peaks, symmetrical peaks and fronting peaks would be observed simultaneously, which was further proved with reversed capillary electrochromatographic experiments.
