Thermo Scientific Accucore aQ C18 Polar Endcapped HPLC Columns

Description

Thermo Scientific Accucore aQ C18 columns are reversed-phase HPLC columns engineered for high-performance separations using 100% aqueous mobile phases. The stationary phase features a C18 ligand with a proprietary polar endcapping technology, which reduces phase collapse and maintains column wettability under purely aqueous conditions. This design provides excellent peak shape and retention for polar compounds that are typically challenging to analyze with standard reversed-phase columns. Applications often include the analysis of pharmaceuticals, metabolites, and various hydrophilic analytes where organic solvent use must be minimized. The columns are built on Accucore solid-core particle technology, offering high efficiency and low backpressure compared to fully porous particles of similar size.
