| Application: | Tenax® TA is a thermal sorption tube (stainless steel TD tube, O.D. × L 1/4 in. × 3 1/2 in., unconditioned, 60-80 mesh) which may be used to trap volatile organic compounds in air samples, which is investigated by the breakthrough characteristics of volatile organic compounds in an extended temperature range using microtrap technology. |
| General description: | We are committed to bringing you greener alternative products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. Thermal desorption tubes are reusable at least 50 to 100 times, and reduces the usage of accessories like transfer vials, caps, and pipette tips, thus aligns with “Waste Prevention”. Also, these tubes eliminate the usage of toxic solvents like CS2 to extract the VOCs of interest, and thus aligns with “Safer Solvents and Auxiliaries” principle. Click here for more information. |
