Analysis of Siloxanes in theEnvironment
•
Rare case, but becoming important
•
Sincemost all GC phases are siloxanes, bleed
ions directly interferewith quantitation ions for
GC-MS analyses
•
Rtx-500Carborane-based capillary column does
not have any siloxane character in its bleed
spectrum
•
Rtx-500 also useful for PBDE flame retardant
analyses (
