Agilent Prep-C18 is a high-performance liquid chromatography column from Agilent that provides high resolution, high reproducibility, and stability for the separation of acidic, basic, and other polar compounds.
This document provides a technical overview of the Agilent Prep-C18 columns, which utilize ultra-pure silica support with high specific surface area and 100A pore size. Available in two particle sizes (5-microns and 10-microns) and various internal diameters, these columns are designed for the preparative purification of acidic, basic, and highly polar compounds via reversed-phase liquid chromatography.
| Particle Size | 5-microns or 10-microns |
|---|---|
| Carbon Loading | 24% |
| pH Stability Range | 2-10 |
| Maximum Operating Pressure | 340 bar (5000 psi) |
| Maximum Operating Temperature | 60°C |
Long term storage should be in a pure organic solvent, preferably an aprotic liquid such as 100% acetonitrile.
The maximum operating pressure limit is 340 bar or 5000 psi.
The maximum operating temperature is 60°C.
The columns are stable and useful within a pH range of 2 to 10.
