Home Gas Chromatography (GC) MET-Biodiesel Capillary GC Column

MET-Biodiesel Capillary GC Column

The MET-Biodiesel was designed specifically for the determination of free and total glycerin in B100 biodiesel samples.

Features and benefits of this column include:

Good peak shape and resolution for all glyceride impurities of interest
Ability to separate glycerin in addition to mono-, di-, and triglycerides (as methyl esters) from the FAMEs
A maximum temperature of 380 °C (isothermal) and 430 °C (programmed), exceeding the temperature limitations specified in biodiesel methods ASTM^®D6584 and EN 14105:2003
Metal was selected as the column material because it holds up better than fused silica under the method conditions, virtually eliminating column breakage
Integrated guard protects the analytical column from excess reagent and non-volatile compounds, extending column life with a leak-free connection
