XSelect HSS C18 Column, 100Å, 3.5 µm, 3 mm X 150 mm, 1/pk
The HSS C18 is a general-purpose C18 bonded phase column with superior peak shape for bases, increased retention (as compared to XBridge C18 columns), and long column lifetimes at low pH. HSS C18 columns will have selectivity and retention similar to most current, completely end-capped, high-coverage silica-based C18 columns.
Multiple varieties of particle technologies are essential to handle complex samples and ensure that diverse forms of food and other components can be studied in depth using chromatography. Waters has developed a wide selection of lab equipment, including columns that use distinctive, distinct, and exclusive particle technologies to ensure that your lab runs smoothly. You'll be able to overcome any chromatographic obstacles using carefully designed ligands that support CSH and HSS technology in Waters products.
The HSS—High Strength Silica technology used in the XSelect HSS C18 Column was developed by Waters to complement the chromatographic performance of 'Ethylene Bridged Hybrid' - BEH and 'Charged Surface Hybrid' - CSH particles. The features of the XSelect HSS C18 Column allow it to sustain UPLC pressures, make it fully scalable and transferable to UPLC separations, and enable the Column to deliver additional benefits to you in your system, such as increased polar compound and different selectivity.
For complex samples, it is important to isolate and quantify sample constituents using a high resolution during separations.

We recommend you also check out the XSelect HSS C18 VanGuard Cartridge, 100Å, 3.5 µm, 2.1 mm X 5 mm, 3/pk; XSelect HSS C18 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. XSelect HSS C18 analytical columns containing 3.5 µm sorbent particles.
What Pressure And pH Range Can The XSelect HSS C18 Column Operate On?
The XSelect HSS C18 SB Column offers a recommended operational pH range between 1 and 8. The XSelect HSS C18 SB Column is designed to withstand a pressure of 6000 psi (or 415 Bar). However, it is always recommended not to cross the maximum range as it can have a drastic impact on the column lifetime and effectiveness.
