CORTECS Shield RP18 Column, 90Å, 1.6 µm, 2.1 mm X 150 mm, 1/pk
The CORTECS Shield RP18 Column is designed to be multi-purpose and efficient while also providing significant benefits due to its versatility. The laboratory equipment is built around a solid-core particle, which allows for balanced retention of acids, bases, and neutrals at low and mid-range pH, resulting in excellent peak shape for basic analytes even at low pH.
You can easily solve difficult mixtures or maintain resolution while increasing throughput by using the general-purpose CORTECS Shield RP18 Column. Because its solid-core particles improve performance by lowering each of the three components of the van Deemter equation, the column can achieve remarkable results. The A term decreases as the particle porosity of the solid core particles decreases, but the B term increases as the particle porosity of the solid core particles decreases, lowering axial diffusion. Their solid core improves heat transmission and reduces radial temperature gradients, which results in a lower C term.
Use the CORTECS Shield RP18 Column in studies requiring complementary selectivity to C8 and C18 stationary phases. In contrast to straight-chain alkyl columns, the lab equipment incorporates a carbamate group in the bonded phase ligand, allowing for alternate selectivity, particularly for phenolic compounds. When compared to fully porous particles of identical particle size, the solid core particle form of CORTECS Columns provides greater efficiency and lower back pressures.
You can effectively increase sample throughput with the CORTECS Shield RP18 Column while maintaining equivalent or even higher peak capacities. This can be performed by simply raising the flow rate of the approach. The laboratory equipment also saves money by increasing analysis speed without sacrificing separation performance, allowing you to examine multiple samples in the same amount of time.
