Ion chromatography (IC) has been demonstrated to be a powerful tool for equilibrium constant determination, related to various cation-ligand systems. Nevertheless, no systematic research has been carried out to develop preliminary checks in order to verify whether the variation in ligand concentration in the eluent at constant ionic strength affects the exchange mechanism for the system of interest in the selected chromatographic column. In this paper, tests are proposed which allow one to determine beforehand the experimental conditions to be used in cation-exchange chromatography, whereby parallel mechanisms of elution (mainly in the reversed-phase mode) are avoided. In this way IC becomes an independent rather than an auxiliary means to obtain accurate βi values. Cd(II)Cl- and Cd(II)NO3 - systems were considered and are discussed.

Abstract
Ion chromatography (IC) has been demonstrated to be a powerful tool for equilibrium constant determination, related to various cation-ligand systems. Nevertheless, no systematic research has been carried out to develop preliminary checks in order to verify whether the variation in ligand concentration in the eluent at constant ionic strength affects the exchange mechanism for the system of interest in the selected chromatographic column. In this paper, tests are proposed which allow one to determine beforehand the experimental conditions to be used in cation-exchange chromatography, whereby parallel mechanisms of elution (mainly in the reversed-phase mode) are avoided. In this way IC becomes an independent rather than an auxiliary means to obtain accurate βi values. Cd(II)Cl- and Cd(II)NO3 - systems were considered and are discussed.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
