Between 1861 and 1910 Schönbein and Goppelsroeder made extensive use of ‘Capillaranalyse’ and demonstrated its potential application in the separation of pure dyes from intermediates and impurities, or from dye mixtures. Its successful operation is really dependent on partition phenomena. Since those early days, thin‐layer systems have been developed extensively. In spite of the rapid expansion of methods for the analysis of trace constituents based on gas chromatography that occurred during the 1960s and early 1970s, in the broader field of organic chemical analysis compounds that were non‐volatile or thermally unstable proved difficult to determine. This led to a renaissance of liquid chromatographic procedures, which are now well documented. Against a background of theory relating to adsorption and partition, an outline of appropriate equipment is provided, leading to consideration of both qualitative and quantitative aspects of chromatographic analysis generally. Some applications relevant to the colour‐manufacturing and colour‐using industries are reviewed.
