Anthony T. James

In 1953 Martin and A.T. James helped perfect gas chromatography, the separation of chemical vapours by differential absorption on a porous solid.

…collaboration with the British chemist Anthony T. James initiated studies of gas-liquid partition chromatography. In 1952 Martin and Synge were awarded the Nobel Prize for their work, perhaps not so much for the newness of the technique but for a model that suggested other systems, a mathematical theory, and an…

James and A.J.P. Martin provided chemists with a method of separating mixtures of volatile substances into their component fractions. In this technique the substance to be analyzed is introduced into a stream of gas, usually helium or nitrogen, and carried by it through a capillary…
