36 Fast 8270 Semivolatile Analysis 12.5m X 100 μm ID HP-5ms column 7.5 min run time But.is this practical? See Agilent application note # EN for more details. Slide 36
37 Running Samples on 100 μm ID Columns Practical? Environmental type samples = high contaminant residue potential. Smaller ID columns have reduced capacity for matrix contaminants due to lower surface area, shorter length (less forgiving). Less surface area a 10 m x.10 mm column has 7.5X less overall surface area than a 30 m x 0.25 mm ID column. A more robust solution might be to switch to a 20 m x 0.18 mm ID column (nice middle-ground between 0.25 and 0.10). These columns could be used in splitless or in split mode, whereas the 0.10 mm ID columns are practically limited to split introduction. Slide 37

53 Conclusions Make sure what you are doing make sense Try not to make a big change in diameter; take small steps A good place to start is to switch from 0.53 to 0.45 mm id, or 0.32 to 0.25 mm Remember that with a decrease in diameter you will also have a decrease in capacity and flow Avoid mm id columns unless you are proficient in 0.18 mm id Use Method Translator Utilize Technical Support!
