โฆ Synopsis
The activity of fused silica capillary tubing has been shown to vary considerably, which severely influences the reproducibility of column deactivation and inertness. Methods for producing a reproducible, high activity surface with maximum hydroxylation by various hydrothermal treatments were evaluated. Columns pretreated with 20% nitric acid at 2OOOC for 10 hours, deactivated with D,, coated with OV-73, and crosslinked with azo-tertbutane were found to possess excellent inertness for sensitive analytes such as alcohols, amines, and alkaloid drugs.
