CORTECS C18+ Column, 90Å, 1.6 µm, 2.1 mm X 150 mm, 3/pk
The CORTECS C18+ Column is a general-purpose, high-efficiency reversed-phase column with a positively charged surface that produces outstanding peak shape for basic chemicals at low pH. It is preferable that the C18 ligand of the CORTECS C18+ Column because of its superior retention and stability. The column is a perfect piece of lab equipment since it allows you to resolve difficult mixes or maintain resolution while improving throughput.
The solid-core particles that are the foundation of the CORTECS C18+ Columns boost performance by decreasing each of the three terms in the van Deemter equation. They lower the C term because their solid core improves heat transfer, reducing radial temperature gradients, and they lower the A term because the solid core particles pack more uniformly. They also lower the B and C terms because the solid core particles have lower particle porosity, which reduces axial diffusion.
When compared to the original separation, the CORTECS C18+ Column allows you to use a shorter column length while keeping identical peak capacities and offering quicker re-equilibration times. The ability to analyze multiple samples simultaneously while maintaining separation performance is a certain advantage of analysis speed, which lowers the cost of lab operation. Additionally, by simply increasing the flow rate of the technique, you can improve sample throughput with equivalent or even superior peak capacities.

Additionally, we advise you to look at the HILIC QC Reference Material. To help in benchmarking this kind of separation, the HILIC QC Reference Material was created as a standard. It is a 4 component mix containing an un-retained void marker, a polar neutral compound, and two polar basic compounds that enable a stable chromatographic separation for HILIC columns and was particularly designed as a batch test standard for ACQUITY UPLC BEH HILIC columns.
What pressure and temperature ranges are best for the CORTECS C18+ Column?
This CORTECS C18+ Column can endure temperatures as high as 45 degrees Fahrenheit and pressures as high as 18,000 psi (or 1240 bar). It has a pH range of 2 to 8; however, you should be aware that working at severe pressures, pH levels, or temperatures will shorten the lifespan and efficacy of columns.
