Closure is laminated with Polyimide (fluorine-free) instead of PTFE; thus suitable for analysis of fluorinated organic compounds (e.g. PFAS analysis). Slit serves as a penetration aid for thick and dull HPLC needles.

PTFE-free closures (fluorine-free)
PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) covers most elastomeric liners in chromatography closures. It is the chemically resistant barrier that on one hand protects the elastomer layer (like silicone or rubber) from being destructed by aggressive solvents/samples and on the other hand the samples from any contaminants possibly emerging out of the carrier material. While it is generally recommendable to have such a chemically resistant barrier between sample and carrier material, the PTFE lamination may become a problem in the analysis of fluorinated compounds, as in e.g. PFAS analysis, as there is the risk that fluorine from the PTFE may migrate into the sample.
A fluorine-free septum, i.e. a septum with a Polyimide instead of a PTFE lamination as the chemically resistant barrier, is therefore recommendable to ensure reliable analysis results. MACHEREY-NAGEL offers a screw closure N 9 (REF 702402) and a snap ring closure N 11 (REF 702403) with a Silicone/Polyimide septum. The Silicone as a carrier material offers safe penetration and high analytical purity. If used on HPLC instruments with thick and blunt needles, the screw closure N 9 with slit Silicone/Polyimide septum (MN REF 702405) is recommended. For PFAS analysis the closures are used in combination with plastic vials.
