Sample introduction: Desolvation |
A room temperature Nafion® micro-porous membrane for removing residual solvent vapor in the sample aerosol stream from an Apex sample inlet system. - Nafion® membrane removes water and small polar organic compounds
- Reduces solvent derived oxide and hydride polyatomic interferences.
- Chemical resistance similar to Teflon®
- Operates at room temperature, attaches to rear of Apex.
- Suitable for sample flow rates < 100µL/min through Apex.
- Sweep gas does not permeate through membrane, use N2 or Ar as sweep gas.
- Simple to operate, compared to macro-porous membrane.
- Easy to maintain and clean.
