The Rtx®-65 phase contains the highest phenyl content of any bonded stationary phase available, to improve separation of aromatic compounds through increased phase-analyte interaction. A unique polarity makes these columns ideal for a variety of analyses, from phenols to FAMEs. As a confirmation column for EPA Method 604 phenols, an Rtx®-65 column produces a different elution order, compared to the primary Rtx®-5 column. Rtx®-65 columns elute FAMEs according to equivalent chain length, similar to bonded Carbowax® columns, but the Rtx®-65 phase does not suffer the thermal stability limitations of other polar stationary phases.
