SunFire packing materials are manufactured from fully porous, high-purity silica with a pore size of 100 Å. The combination of silica synthesis, bonding chemistry, end-capping, and controlled packing is designed to ensure high efficiency, low column bleeding, and good stability under acidic conditions. C18 and C8 differ primarily in their hydrophobic retention, while SunFire Silica is used for adsorptive normal-phase separations. The product family includes both analytical and OBD preparative columns, thereby supporting method scale-up.
