ideal, non-linear chromatography

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.IT06944
Chromatographic process, where only the curvature of the @DT06932@ determines the shape of the peaks while other peak-broadening processes are neglected.
Note:
The assumption of ideal, non-linear (INL) @C01075@ is often made in order to facilitate theoretical treatments. It can be justified in cases of efficient columns and distribution isotherms with prominent non-linearity.
