The capillary option uses two columns connected in series, where the first column is the nonpolar dimethylpolysiloxane phase (Rxi-1ms, cat.# 13338) and the second is a polar \u201cwax\u201d phase (Stabilwax, cat.# 10657 ) column. After toluene is eluted from the first column, the first column is backflushed while an auxiliary EPC maintains flow through the second column.
