CORTECS C18+ Column, 90Å, 2.7 µm, 3 mm X 100 mm, 3/pk
The CORTECS C18+ Column is a high-efficiency, general-purpose reversed-phase column with a positively charged surface that offers a great peak shape for basic chemicals at low pH. The C18 ligand in the CORTECS C18+ Column is preferred because it retains and stabilizes data well. The column is an ideal piece of scientific equipment because it allows you to resolve difficult mixes or retain resolution while improving throughput.
The CORTECS C18+ Columns are made up of solid-core particles that boost performance by decreasing each of the van Deemter equation's three terms. The A term is reduced because the solid core particles pack more uniformly, the B term is reduced because the solid core particles have lower particle porosity, which reduces axial diffusion, and the C term is reduced because the solid core particles improve heat transfer, reducing radial temperature gradients.
When compared to the original separation, the CORTECS C18+ Column allows you to use a shorter column length while keeping identical peak capacities and giving faster re-equilibration times. This evident advantage of analysis speed without sacrificing separation performance allows for the simultaneous processing of more samples, lowering lab operation expenses. Furthermore, by simply increasing the flow rate of the technique, you can improve sample throughput with equivalent or even superior peak capacities.

What Pressure And Temperature Restrictions Are Best For The CORTECS C18+ Column?
The Solid Core, Silica Particle substrate-based CORTECS C18+ Column with low Silanol activity can resist pressures up to 18,000 psi (1240 bar) and temperatures up to 45 degrees Celsius. It also has a pH range of 2 to 8, but working at severe pressures, pH, and/or temperatures will shorten column lives and efficiency.
