Econosphere C8

Medium-Hydrophobicity Reversed-Phase Column for Routine HPLC

Econosphere C8 is a C8-bonded HPLC column based on fully porous, high-purity silica, offering moderate hydrophobic retention for reversed-phase separations. It is ideal for analytes that elute too slowly on C18 columns or for faster run times in routine applications. Econosphere C8 delivers reliable peak shape, consistent retention, and is well suited for quality control, method development, and general-purpose use.

Econosphere C8 provides dependable reversed-phase performance with shorter retention times – a practical solution for everyday HPLC analysis.
