Rtx®-Volatile Amine Columns
The Rtx®-Volatile Amine column was designed specifically for analyzing volatile amines in difficult matrices, such as water. The unique base deactivation creates an exceptionally inert surface for these sensitive compounds, resulting in highly symmetrical peaks which allow low detection limits. The stable bonded phase yields a column that is not only retentive and highly selective for these compounds, but is also very robust…

This column is used on a gas chromatography-vacuum ultraviolet (GC-VUV) set up to analyze formaldehyde in a water matrix. The Volatile-Amine column is able to withstand multiple water injections. Restek is also very helpful if you need to call/email them questions and have always gone above and beyond to help in any way possible. 10/10 would recommend.

The Rtx®-Volatile Amine column was designed specifically for analyzing volatile amines in difficult matrices, such as water.
The unique base deactivation creates an exceptionally inert surface for these sensitive compounds, resulting in highly symmetrical peaks which allow low detection limits. The stable bonded phase yields a column that is not only retentive and highly selective for these compounds, but is also very robust and able to withstand repeated water injections.
Each Rtx®-Volatile Amine column is held to stringent quality specifications and tested with a specially designed test mix that includes basic compounds to ensure exceptional inertness, reliability, and reproducibility.
Rtx®-Volatile Amine Columns Features:
- Unique selectivity for baseline resolution of all volatile amines.
- Excellent inertness assures accuracy and sensitivity for volatile amines, including free ammonia.
- Highly robust phase withstands repeated water injections, resulting in longer column lifetime.
- High temperature stability (290 °C) ensures elution of amines up to C16 and allows contaminants to be removed by “baking out” the column.
