SunFire Prep Silica (NP) Column 10µm 10 x 150mm, Box of 1

The Waters SunFire Silica HPLC/UHPLC column 150x10mm, 10µm, is constructed on high-purity, unmodified silica and possesses a polar silanol surface without bonded ligands. The Waters SunFire Silica is intended for use in normal-phase chromatography. The silica phase is designed for preparative normal-phase methods and scale-up applications. Typical applications of Waters SunFire Silica include preparative normal-phase separations, natural product isolation, polarity-based fractionation and separations as an alternative to reversed phase.

Performance Characteristics and Benefits

• High-purity 100 Å silica
• Proprietary binding and end-capping technology
• High stability at low pH
• Good peak shapes for acidic and basic analytes
• High loading capacity for preparative separations

Additional Information

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.
