Kromasil ClassicShell-2.5-C8 4.6 x 100 mm

The Kromasil ClassicShell C8 HPLC column 100x4.6mm, 2.5µm, is based on an octyl phase (other designations: RP-8, C8) on 2.5 µm solid-core particles. The C8 modification offers lower hydrophobic retention than C18 and can therefore enable faster elutions or alternative selectivity. Kromasil ClassicShell C8 is used in reversed-phase chromatography when short run times and robust peak shapes are the priority. Typical applications include pharmaceutical analysis, method development, food and beverage analysis, environmental analysis, mid-polarity compounds and rapid QC methods.

Features and Benefits

• 2.5 µm solid-core particles for fast HPLC separations
• C18 and C8 phases for classic reverse-phase selectivities
• Short diffusion paths for high efficiency and narrow peaks
• Good reproducibility for research, method development, and quality control
• Suitable for pharmaceutical, environmental, food, beverage, and industrial analysis

Additional Information

Kromasil ClassicShell expands the classic Kromasil platform with 2.5 µm solid-core silica particles. The particle architecture, featuring a solid core and a porous shell, shortens diffusion paths and supports fast, highly efficient separations. The stationary phases draw on proven Kromasil RP selectivities and are designed for analytical HPLC methods in research, development, and quality control. The Kromasil silica concept supports reproducible packed beds and stable chromatographic performance. Matching Kromasil ClassicShell precolumn cartridges protect the solid-core main column from particles and matrix components.
