Product Description
LiChrospher® 100 RP-18 (5 µm) | 1.16177.0010 | Merck is a premium-quality reversed-phase silica packing material designed for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), analytical method development, and column packing applications. Manufactured under strict quality standards, it features a 100 Å pore size and 5 µm particle size, providing excellent separation efficiency, reproducibility, and long-term chromatographic performance.
The RP-18 (C18) stationary phase is widely used for separating non-polar to moderately polar compounds in pharmaceutical analysis, environmental monitoring, food testing, biotechnology, and chemical research. It is ideal for HPLC column packing, method optimization, and routine analytical workflows requiring high-resolution separations and reliable results.
Merck LiChrospher® 100 RP-18 (5 µm) is trusted by pharmaceutical laboratories, research institutes, universities, analytical testing facilities, and industrial quality control laboratories for accurate and reproducible chromatographic analysis.
FAQs
What is the particle size of the Lichrospher 100 RP-18 column?
The Lichrospher 100 RP-18 column has a particle size of 5 µm, which provides a good balance between efficiency and backpressure for standard HPLC applications.
Is the Lichrospher 100 RP-18 column suitable for UHPLC?
While the 5 µm particle size is not ideal for UHPLC, which typically uses sub-2 µm particles, the Lichrospher 100 RP-18 can still be used in some UHPLC systems with adjusted flow rates and pressures.
What type of compounds can be separated using this C18 HPLC column?
The Lichrospher 100 RP-18 column is designed for reversed-phase chromatography and is particularly effective for separating non-polar to moderately polar compounds, including pharmaceuticals, environmental pollutants, and biochemical molecules.
How do I choose the right column dimensions for my application?
For analytical applications, a 250 mm length with a 4.6 mm internal diameter is a common choice. For faster analyses, shorter columns (e.g., 150 mm) can be used, while longer columns (e.g., 300 mm) may be better for complex separations requiring higher resolution.
