Description

General description

SupraSolv^® ECD and FID is specially developed for gas chromatography in combination with ECD (Electron Capture Detector) and FID (Flame Ionization detector). SupraSolv^® solvents offer the largest specified retention time range, a clear baseline and a minimum signal-to-noise ratio leading to reliable and reproducible analysis results.
Recovered from special distillation cuts, they are tested for specific detectors to ensure high application security.

Application

Ideal for GC applications including sensitive detection in residue and environmental analysis .
