Purospher® STAR RP-18 endcapped
The versatility you need!
Purospher® STAR RP-18 endcapped HPLC columns are designed for universal use. Basic, neutral, metal chelating could easily be separated with simple mobile phases – naturally without peak tailing!
Thanks to its outstanding performance and stability, Purospher® STAR RP-18 endcapped offers maximum flexibility in method development. Robust methods can be developed over the entire pH range from 1.5 to 10.5. The high pH-stability up to pH 10.5 allows the separation of strongly basic compounds with alkaline eluents.
The combination of high purity silica, best all-round retention characteristics, outstanding pH stability up to pH 10.5, and suitability for up to 100% aqueous mobile phases, make Purospher® STAR RP-18 endcapped an all-round top performance column, almost universal in its range of applications.
