FactorFour VF-WAXms - the first low bleed WAX column

VF-WAXms is a high performance WAX column that benefits from FactorFour technology in providing ultra low bleed. The column is ideal for trace analysis of polar compounds.

VF-WAXms builds on the capabilities of the FactorFour range, providing a highly inert, low bleed column with enhanced column-to-column reproducibility. The ultra low bleed characteristics not only lower the baseline, but also provide better signal to noise ratios (Figure 1). Because these columns are highly inert, you’ll see sharper peeks, higher responses and better accuracy for quantification (Figure 2). The excellent column-to-column reproducibility increases productivity by minimizing the need for GC recalibration when a new column is installed (Figure 3).

Key Benefits

Application areas
The very stable formulation of VF-WAXms columns are ideal for applications in food, beverages, flavors, FAMEs, acids, alcohols and fragrances, - especially when trace analysis is essential.

VF-WAXms is delivers the power of mass spectrometry
The ultra low bleed of VF-WAXms increases sensitivity, extends column lifetime and boosts accuracy. In addition, the low bleed means you can use MS detection, a powerful option that can be difficult with other columns. Easily identify impurities and achieve significantly improve performance, without losing the selectivity provided by the polyethylene glycol phase .

The VF-WAXms comes with an EZ-GRIP™, simplifying installation, coupling and operation of capillary columns. For guaranteed performance, the retention index, efficiency, selectivity and bleed is measured and specified on the test report supplied with each column.
