Rxi-5Sil MS Columns (fused silica)

low-polarity phase; Crossbond 1,4-bis(dimethylsiloxy)phenylene dimethyl polysiloxane

Rxi fused silica capillary GC columns were designed specifically to be the best columns available, for exceptional inertness, ultra-low bleed, and reproducible retention and selectivity. In addition to outstanding performance, this combination of column characteristics assures Rxi columns will have long lifetimes. The Restek chemists also have developed a stable, reproducible manufacturing process, so that Rxi columns will meet your needs every time you install a new column.

The Rxi-5Sil MS stationary phase incorporates phenyl groups in the polymer backbone. This improves thermal stability, reduces bleed, and makes the phase less prone to oxidation. Rxi-5Sil MS columns are ideal for GC-MS applications requiring high sensitivity, including use in ion trap systems.

• Engineered to be a low-bleed GC-MS column.
• Excellent inertness for active compounds.
• General-purpose columns—ideal for GC-MS analysis of semivolatiles, polycyclic aromatic compounds, chlorinated hydrocarbons, phthalates, phenols, amines, organochlorine pesticides, organophosphorus pesticides, drugs, solvent impurities, and hydrocarbons.
• Temperature range: -60 °C to 350°C
