Reliable Low-Level Analysis of Glycols in Water Using Split Injection

Restek Corp.
30 Jun 2019

Obtaining consistent results for low-level analysis of glycols in water samples is difficult when using splitless injection due primarily to issues with backflash, poor peak shape, and shifting retention times. The split injection method shown here avoids these problems and reliably produces good chromatographic results. Lifetime testing demonstrated that Rtx-Wax columns produce stable results, even after column integrity was challenged with 600 water injections.

Rtx-Wax Columns

Restek Corp.

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.

Gas ChromatographyGas chromatography (GC) is an analytical technique used to separate and quantitate mixtures of small and volatile compounds. Gas chromatographs or GC systems include components such as GC columns, detectors, pumps and autosamplers. Choose from packed or capillary GC columns, flame ionization (FID), photoionization (PID) electron capture detectors and selective or non-selective detectors. Find the best gas chromatographs in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.ChromatographyChromatography is a powerful technique used to separate and analyze components of mixtures based on their chemical properties. It is widely used in fields like biochemistry, pharmaceuticals, and environmental analysis. By exploiting differences in the interaction of substances with a stationary phase and a mobile phase, chromatography enables precise purification and quantification of compounds. Whether you're working with complex biological samples or industrial chemicals, chromatography is essential for obtaining high-quality results.
