Retention volume of a sample component, the molecules of which are smaller than the smallest pores of the particles of the stationary phase.
Note: The total mobile phase volume is related to the total mobile phase time (in size-exclusion chromatography) (\(t_{\rm{t}}\)) and the flow rate (\(F_{\rm{c}}\)) by \(V_{\rm{t}} = t_{\rm{t}} \times F_{\rm{c}}\).
