midpolarity phase; Crossbond trifluoropropylmethyl polysiloxane
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 trifluoropropylmethyl polysiloxane 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.
- General-purpose columns for solvents, Freon fluorocarbons, alcohols, ketones, silanes, glycols, and drugs of abuse. Excellent confirmation column with an Rtx-5 column for phenols, nitrosamines, organochlorine pesticides, chlorinated hydrocarbons, and chlorophenoxy herbicides.
- Equivalent to USP G6 phase
