Platinum C18

Standard Reversed-Phase HPLC Column for Robust and Reproducible Analysis

Platinum C18 is a silica-based HPLC column with an octadecyl bonded phase, designed to deliver strong hydrophobic retention, high reproducibility, and robust performance across a wide range of analytes. As the most widely used stationary phase in reversed-phase chromatography, Platinum C18 provides reliable results for both routine and advanced applications.

Built on high-purity silica and stabilized with robust bonding chemistry, Platinum C18 ensures sharp peak shapes, long operational lifetimes, and consistent performance under routine and demanding chromatographic conditions.

Platinum C18 delivers proven C18 performance with robustness and reproducibility – the dependable choice for laboratories conducting reversed-phase HPLC separations.

Key Features:

  • Silica-based stationary phase with octadecyl (C18) bonded chemistry

  • Strong hydrophobic retention for a broad range of compounds

  • Excellent reproducibility and robust column lifetime

  • Sharp peak shapes and reliable performance under routine use

  • Available particle sizes: 1.5 µm to 15 µm
