Allsphere C6 is a reversed-phase HPLC column functionalized with hexyl (C6) groups on fully porous, high-purity silica. Positioned between C8 and C4 in hydrophobicity, this phase offers moderate retention for non-polar compounds and balanced selectivity for analytes that are either too strongly or too weakly retained on other alkyl phases. Allsphere C6 is especially suitable for method development, impurity profiling, and applications that require fine-tuned retention behavior.
Allsphere C6 offers flexible reversed-phase performance for compounds requiring moderate hydrophobic interaction – ideal for fine-tuning retention in challenging separations.
