Thermal Desorption

Thermal desorption is a powerful tool, offering solutions to many complex sample handling problems in gas chromatography, from sulphides in food products to the desorption of rock and shale.  The major types of sample are shown below. The focussing device is the sorbent tube (in single stage) or the secondary trap in a dual stage desorber. Any desorber should be compatible with all column types, from 0.10 mm ID to 0.53 mm ID, or even packed columns. Make sure your desorber includes the ESSENTIAL FEATURES!

The thermal desorption system is a focussing inlet, which will take various types of sample and inject them efficiently into the gas chromatograph. The best system acts as the complete auto sampling injector while the cheaper systems are single shot and require additional means of focussing to be effective across the volatility range.
