The PerfectChrom 100 C18 pre-column cartridges 20x4.0mm, 10µm, are used to protect PerfectChrom 100 C18 columns with an inner diameter of 4.0 mm. Either the freestanding FG71020 holder with the AP5101 column coupler or the integrated VI74000 holder is required as a pre-column holder.
The PerfectChrom series is based on a Type A silica gel. This means that some transition metals are present in the silica framework. As a result, the silanol groups are more acidic, which can lead to different interactions compared to modern Type B silica gels. The service life can be extended by using appropriate pre-column cartridges.
