| Silphenylene Polysiloxane |
Traditional
polysiloxane-type GC stationary phases degrade at
elevated temperatures. The degradation process is
well documented and consists of the thermal rearrangement
of the siloxane backbone to produce cyclic groups. These
groups are volatile and elute from the column as column
'bleed'. The silphenylene units (Fig. 1) within the
007-5MS backbone act as heat sinks and limit the
formation of the cyclic groups normally associated with
polysiloxane degradation.

Silphenylene/polysilxane phase unit.
The 007-5MS
silphenylene columns offer the chromatographer a
number of advantages:
greater
thermal stability
greater
resistance to oxygen degradation
fast ramping
to elevated temperatures to purge the
column of residual components
improved
analysis of trace level compounds
less baseline
bleed equals less baseline noise, which
results in lower detection limits
increased
column lifetimes
reduced
contamination of MS sources and other GC
detector surfaces
"cleaner"
mass spectra...mass spectra with fewer
extraneous ions enables the analyst to
achieve more accurate compound
identification and a more efficient
library search

Figure 2 - 007-5MS Silphenylene Baseline Bleed

| A typical 007-5MS
baseline bleed is shown above in Figure 2. The
mass spectrum of the baseline bleed is shown below in
Figure 3. |

Figure 3 - 007-5MS Silphenylene Mass Spectrum
Note the low abundance of key ions.
|
| While a typical
methylpolysiloxane bleed spectrum shown below in Figure 4. yields high
abundance's of ions with m/z 207, 281, 355, the mass spectrum of the 007-5MS silphenylene
column (above, Fig. 3.) yields significantly lower
abundance of these ions. Additionally, it
is apparent from Figure 3 that there is a
reduction in the total number of ions resulting
in "cleaner" spectrum and less
background interference. |
