Phenomenex Kinetex LC column 2.6 um C8 100A 20 x 2.1 mm

The Phenomenex 00A-4497-AN Kinetex LC column is a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) column engineered for efficient and rapid separations. This column is characterized by its 2.6 µm particle size, a C8 stationary phase, a 100 Å pore size, and dimensions of 20 x 2.1 mm.

The relatively small 2.6 µm particle size is a key feature, as it contributes to high efficiency and resolution, enabling the separation of closely related compounds. Furthermore, this particle size facilitates faster flow rates and shorter run times, thereby increasing laboratory throughput. The C8 stationary phase, a nonpolar phase commonly used in reversed-phase chromatography, is suitable for separating a broad spectrum of nonpolar to moderately polar compounds. Notably, it exhibits less hydrophobicity than a C18 column, which can be advantageous for specific separation requirements. The 100 Å pore size is optimized for the separation of various small molecules. The dimensions of 20 x 2.1 mm contribute to efficient separations and minimize solvent consumption, while the short length enables rapid run times.

This Kinetex column is an invaluable asset for analytical chemists across diverse fields, including pharmaceutical, environmental, and food analysis, where high-resolution and rapid separations are essential.
