XBridge BEH Shield RP18 Column, 130Å, 5 µm, 4.6 mm X 100 mm, 1/pk
Utilize the XBridge BEH Shield RP18 Column to achieve superior separation of bases. The embedded carbamate group in the bonded phase ligand of the XBridge BEH Shield RP18 Column provides alternate selectivity, especially for phenolic compounds compared to straight-chain alkyl columns. The XBridge BEH Shield RP18 Column's design leads to reduced silanol interactions with basic analytes due to the Shield Technology and assists in achieving highly symmetrical and efficient peaks. This deactivation of basic analytes is the shielding effect that results in improved peak shape.
You will maximize particle efficiency with the application of the XBridge BEH Shield RP18 Column and rely on the lab equipment to deliver unmatched peak shape and peak capacity. The XBridge BEH Shield RP18 Column is specially designed to enhance productivity. Through the improved pH stability, you will also get increased column lifetime and assay ruggedness by enhanced reliability.
Within chromatography, it is essential to be able to have reproducible column performance for reliable method development; hence to ensure you have equipment that can provide you with batch-to-batch reproducibility and stability of results, every equipment from Waters is produced in dedicated state of the art facilities. Within Waters facilities, every step of the manufacturing process is strictly controlled and closely monitored, under the highest of industry standards. Every XBridge BEH Shield RP18 Column is thoroughly tested from raw materials to the final product to ensure you have the best quality products in your laboratory, and you can count on them.
Browse through our brochure or visit our website to review the extensive collection of all XBridge Columns available by Waters, and you easily shop for lab equipment as per your needs.
We recommend you also explore the Waters XBridge BEH Shield RP18 XP VanGuard Cartridge, 130Å, 2.5 µm, 2.1 mm X 5 mm, 3/pk; the XBridge BEH Shield RP18 VanGuard Cartridges are used to extend analytical column lifetime and performance by removing particulate contamination from the mobile phase stream. This cartridge is optimized to protect all 2.1 mm and 3.0 mm I.D. XBridge BEH Shield RP18 analytical columns containing 2.5 µm sorbent particles.
What Is The Operational pH and Pressure Range Within Which The XBridge BEH Shield RP18 Column Operates Optimally?
The XBridge BEH Shield RP18 Column can operate optimally within the 2 - 11 pH range with up to 6000psi (or 415 Bar). However, you should note that operating the system and/or your column at temperature or other settings such as pH and pressure close to the edges of the limit or outside of it can have a drastic impact on your column's lifetime and performance and decrease them significantly.
