Agilent ZORBAX StableBond C3 (SB-C3) HPLC Columns
Agilent ZORBAX StableBond C3 (SB-C3) HPLC columns offer reduced retention of hydrophobic analytes. The SB-C3 packing is made by chemically bonding a sterically protected triisopropyl silane to a specially prepared, high-purity ZORBAX silica. Excellent stability is observed for low pH and high temperature applications. Manufactured with fully porous silica in 1.8 µm, 3.5 µm, and 5 µm for use with either UHPLC or HPLC methods.
- C3 column compatible with low pH and high temperature applications
- Reduced retention of hydrophobic compounds compared to SB-18 and SB-C8
- Excellent stability and peak shape at highly acidic conditions
- Traditional, fully porous particles available in 1.8 µm, 3.5 µm, and 5 µm sizes
- Guards extend the lifetime of analytical columns without diminishing performance
- USP L56 classification
- ZORBAX StableBond also includes SB-C18, SB-C8, SB-Aq, SB-Phenyl, and SB-CN for alternative selectivity
