Abstract

The deactivation of fused silica capillary columns with a laboratory-made poly-diphenylvinylmethylhydrosiloxane copolymer has been investigated. The deactivation obtained at different temperatures and reaction times is characterized with a dual column capillary GC system [1]. In parallel, the effect of the silylation temperatures and reaction times on the nature, the structure, and the chemical properties of the deactivation layer has also been studied by solid-state 29Si NMR spoctroscopy. A fumed silica, Cab-O-Sil M5, was used as a model substrate for these spectroscopic studies. The deactivated fused silica capillaries show an excellent thermal stability (up to 400°C), a high resistance to solvolysis, and a minimal interaction to various critical test components. A good wettability of the fused silica capillary columns deactivated with this reagent was confirmed by successful subsequent coating with polysiloxanes with different phenyl contents
