Agilent Prep-Sil Scalar columns are analytical-scale versions of Agilent Prep-Sil preparative columns and are primarily used to develop methods for pre-parative applications involving Agilent Prep-Sil col- umns, as well as for purity checks
The document describes the Agilent Prep-Sil Scalar columns as analytical-scale versions of preparative columns designed primarily for method development and purity checks. These columns utilize ultra-pure Type B silica support with a high specific surface area of 400 m²/gram and a pore size of 100 Å, available in 5-micron and 10-micron particle sizes.
| Silica Support Type | ultra-pure (Type B) silica support |
|---|---|
| Specific Surface Area | 400 m²/gram |
| Pore Size | 100 Å |
| Particle Sizes | 5-microns and 10-microns |
| pH Stability Range | pH 0.8-8 |
| Maximum Operating Pressure | 400 bar (6000 psi) |
They are primarily used to develop methods for preparative applications involving Agilent Prep-Sil columns, as well as for purity checks.
Yes, the columns are compatible with water and all common organic solvents.
The use of a guard column is recommended to protect the silica column and extend its useful lifetime.
