NUCLEOSHELL® Phenyl-Hexyl HPLC Columns

NUCLEOSHELL® core-shell silica phases for HPLC

NUCLEOSHELL® Core-shell technology provides

• Better resolution at lower back pressure and shorter retention time
• Solid core of silicon dioxide
• Homogeneous shell of porous silica
• Highest efficiency compared to traditional totally porous materials
• Particle size 2.7 µm (core 1.7 µm); specific surface 130 m2/g
• RP 18 and RP 18plus phases are also available with particle size 5 µm (core 3.8 µm); specific surface 90 m2/g
• Lower back pressure also allows use on conventional LC systems
• Pressure stability up to 600 bar
