Stabilwax

(Crossbond® Carbowax® polyethylene glycol)GC column

  • Polar phase.
  • Resistant to oxidative damage.
  • Equivalent to USP G14, G15, G16, G20, and G39 phases.

Our polar-deactivated surface tightly binds the Carbowax® polymer and increases thermal stability, relative to competitive columns. The bonding mechanisms produce a column that can be rejuvenated by solvent washing. Compared to silicone stationary phases, PEG phases are more resistant to damage from strongly acidic or basic volatile compounds.

Applications
  • FAMEs
  • Flavor compounds
  • Essential oils
  • Solvents
  • Xylene isomers
  • US EPA Method 603 (acrolein/acrylonitrile)

Rtx-Wax

(Crossbond® Carbowax® polyethylene glycol)GC column

  • Polar phase.
  • Equivalent to USP G14, G15, G16, G20, and G39 phases.

Rtx®-Wax columns are the most inert and efficient PEG columns currently available. The extended operating temperature range allows analysis of compounds having a wide volatility range, and ensures low bleed at temperatures as high as 250°C. Selectivity is comparable to other Carbowax® columns, for compounds of intermediate to high polarity. Selectivity data available on request.

Applications
  • FAMEs
  • Solvents
  • BTEX aromatics
  • Flavour compounds
  • Alcohols

Rtx-200 MS

(Crossbond® trifluoropropylmethyl polysiloxane)GC column

  • Midpolarity phase.
  • Column specifically tested for low bleed performance.
  • Equivalent to USP G6 phase.

Rtx®-200 columns have accomplished many difficult separations not possible on any other bonded stationary phase. Many analysts consider these the best, most inert midpolarity columns available. The trifluoropropyl stationary phase has a unique selectivity that changes elution orders and resolves compounds that phenyl, cyano, or Carbowax® phases can not. The Rtx®-200 column offers exceptional thermal stability, low bleed, and superior inertness--even for active compounds such as phenols, and with sensitive detectors such as ECDs, NPDs, and MSDs.

Applications
  • Solvents
  • Freon® fluorocarbons
  • Alcohols
  • Ketones
  • Silanes
  • Glycols
  • Excellent confirmation column, with an Rtx®-5 column, for phenols, nitrosamines, organochlorine pesticides, chlorinated hydrocarbons, and chlorophenoxy herbicides.

Rtx-1701

(Crossbond® 14%cyanopropylphenyl/86%dimethyl polysiloxane)GC column

  • Midpolarity phase.
  • Equivalent to USP G46 phase.

Rtx®-1701 is one of the most popular stationary phases used in capillary GC. The mix of cyano and phenyl functional groups increases the polarity and offers a different elution order relative to less polar Rtx®-1 or Rtx®-5 columns. An Rtx®-1701 column is ideal for confirmation analysis, in combination with an Rtx®-35 or Rtx®-5 column. The polymer is fully characterized to ensure long-term reproducibility, column-to-column consistency, and low bleed, even with sensitive detectors such as ECDs and MSDs.

Applications
  • Alcohols
  • Oxygenates
  • PCB congeners or (e.g.) Aroclor mixes
  • Pesticides

The 5% diphenyl/95% dimethyl polysiloxane stationary phase is the most popular GC stationary phase and is used in a wide variety of applications. All residual catalysts and low molecular weight fragments are removed from the Rtx®-5 polymer, providing a tight mono-modal distribution and extremely low bleed.
