Agilent HPLC Column Zorbax SB-C8 5 um 4.6 x 50 mm with Warranty

The Agilent 846975-906 HPLC Column is a high-performance liquid chromatography column designed for efficient separation and analysis of a wide range of chemical compounds. This column is part of the Zorbax StableBond (SB) series, a product line known for its exceptional stability and unique selectivity. It features a fully porous silica-based stationary phase with octyl (C8) functional groups, which provides a balanced retention mechanism suitable for separating both polar and non-polar analytes.

A key feature of the Zorbax StableBond columns is their patented, non-functional silanes with bulky side chain groups. These groups sterically protect the key siloxane bond from hydrolytic attack, which makes the column exceptionally stable at low pH conditions, down to a pH of 1. This stability allows for the use of highly acidic mobile phases, which can be crucial for resolving compounds that are otherwise challenging to separate, particularly in complex biological and pharmaceutical samples.

The column has a particle size of 5 µm and dimensions of 4.6 mm internal diameter and 50 mm length. These specifications make it suitable for a variety of analytical applications in fields such as pharmaceutical analysis, environmental monitoring, and food analysis, where reliable, reproducible, and robust separations are required. The Agilent 846975-906 is a valuable tool for method development, offering excellent peak shape with acidic, basic, and neutral substances.
