The following tables show the approximate time to
evaporate various solvents in 12mm and 20mm sample
tubes when the sample block is fully loaded. Other sample
blocks are available for different size tubes. If they are
used or if a different number of samples is run at one time,
the evaporation times can be estimated from these charts or
determined experimentally. Evaporation rates may vary
from tube to tube.
