Symmetry Shield RP18 Column, 100Å, 5 µm, 4.6 mm X 150 mm, 1/pk
Leverage the power of narrow specification ranges to get outstanding reproducibility with the Symmetry Shield RP18 Column. The lab equipment offers the narrowest ligand surface coverage (ligand density) in the industry. This ensures that you get minimal shifts in resolutions and, thus, more reproducible results from batch-to-batch and column-to-column.
The Symmetry Shield RP18 Column is guaranteed to last you a long time and reduce your lab equipment cost. This is because the Symmetry Shield RP18 Column offers optimized performance and offers the combination of two main factors that impact the column’s lifetime, the hydrolytic stability of the packing material and mechanical stability of the packed bed.
Get superior peak shape across the 2-8 pH range with the Symmetry Shield RP18 Column. The analytical column offers this wide pH range as it has high bonding density and minimal residual silanol activity of packing materials. This means that you can choose to work at neutral or low pH to optimize your method without compromising the peak shape. The Symmetry Shield RP18 Column will also help you in developing new methods faster and improve the laboratory’s productivity by delivering lower levels of detection and quantitation.

What Operating Temperature Is Recommended For Symmetry Shield RP18 Column?
In order to enhance selectivity, lower solvent viscosity and increase mass transfer rates, it is recommended that the operating temperature range of 20 - 45 be used for Symmetry Shield RP18 Column. It is important to note that any elevation in temperature will have a negative impact on the lifetime of the analytical column which will also vary and depend on the pH and buffer conditions used.
