Rtx-1301 / MXT-1301
r Rtx-1301 / MXT-1301 Unique polarity ideal for a wide variety of applications. Equivalent to USP G43 stationary phase used for solvent impurity analysis in pharmaceutical products. The Rtx-1301 and MXT-l30l columns use a highly selective, intermediate polarity stationary phase that has become popular in recent years. The Rtx-1301 / MXT-1301 polymer required completely new synthesis routes compared to other Restek polymers. Our silicone synthesis chemists chose polymerization reactions that did not cause carboxyl amide formation of the critical cyano groups. The polymer backbone structure was also modified in a way that achieved stable polymer formulations at high temperatures. The result from this new polymer formulation was low bleed, even with sensitive detectors such as ECDs, NPDs, and MSDs. Restek' s 1301 has been found by many analysts to be the best cyanosilicone bonded stationary phase available, with no other column manufacturer having lower bleed, longer lifetime, or better inertness. The polymer is fully characterized to ensure long-terni reproducibility and column-to-column consistency. Characterization testing includes RI, FTIR, Kovats Indices. % crosslinking, efficiency. and a five-day thermal bake-out to ensure column longevity. New batches of polymers are used only when they meet Restek's stringent QA tests, and each lot is subsequently tracked in an extensive data base for future reference. Rtx-1301 / MXT-1301 columns exhibit excellent inertness for many reactive compound classes, including pesticides and herbicides. However. strongly acidic compounds should be excluded

Restek's Crossbond procedure produces columns with lower bleed and longer lifetime and allows rejuvenation through solvent rinsing.
