Cosmosil® C18-PAQ
Nacalai Tesque COSMOSIL 5C18-PAQ Microbore Analytical HPLC Column, 5µm, 120Å, 2mm I.D. x 50mm Length, 1/Pk
Product Number: 05794-41
Cosmosil® C18-PAQ is a polymeric C18 like C18-AR-Ⅱ, but it is formulated to have less octadecyl groups than 518-AR-Ⅱ. It is also designed for separation with a mobile phase that does not contain organic solvents, so it provides stable retention times even with a 100% water mobile phase, and is excellent for separating hydrophilic compounds.
- C18 column that can be used with 100% aqueous mobile phase
- Advantageous for the analysis of hydrophilic compounds

Features:
- 3C18-EB - This phase with a better end-capping treatment offers improved peak shape and separation particularly for basic compounds.
- C18-MS-II - This phase is recommended for most applications but particularly effective for basic compounds.
- C18-AR-II - This phase is recommended for separations requiring acidic mobile phase conditions. It also shows superior molecular shape selectivity to monomeric type C18columns.
- C18-PAQ - This phase is designed to offer superior retention of polar compounds and excellent reproducibility in highly aqueous mobile phases, even in 100% aqueous.
