Abstract

The invention discloses a miniature gas chromatographic column capable of using air as carrier gas and a manufacturing method thereof. The manufacturing method comprises the following steps of photoetching and stripping on a silicon wafer to form an aluminum mask layer, forming a chromatographic column micro-channel with a micro-upright column array through etching, soaking the silicon wafer in an acid solution, removing the mask and bonding the silicon wafer with borosilicate glass, sputtering titanium and platinum on the back surface of the silicon wafer as a temperature measuring resistor, a heating wire and an electrode, sputtering gold as an electrode pin, enabling the capillary tube to be connected with two ports of the micro gas chromatographic column, and constructing mesoporous silica microspheres in a chromatographic column micro-channel, and coating an ionic liquid stationary phase in a static coating mode. The mesoporous structure in the chromatographic column greatly increases the coating area of a stationary phase, improves the separation capacity within the limited chromatographic column length, has good tolerance to oxygen, ensures high reliability, high stability and high column efficiency of the micro-chromatographic column in a high-temperature aerobic environment, can directly use air as carrier gas, and an excellent micro-chromatographic column is provided for a VOCs detection system.

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of chromatographic analysis technology and the field of microelectromechanical systems, in particular to a high-separation, high-reliability micro-gas chromatographic column that can use air as a carrier gas and its manufacturing method. The invention is suitable for complex multi-component organic compound gases The separation can be applied to on-site respiratory diagnosis, environmental monitoring, etc. Background technique [0002] Gas chromatography is an efficient method for separating and detecting mixtures. The chromatographic columns used in traditional gas chromatography technology are packed columns or fused silica capillary columns, which have long column length, large volume, and long separation time. Therefore, the chromatographic system also has the problems of large volume, slow analysis, and high power consumption. It is applied to the analysis of on-site tests such as respiratory diagnosis and envir...
