AQUASIL Series

The Thermo Scientific AQUASIL C18 columns provide a versatile C18 phase for a wide range of applications. Combining a C18 phase with a hydrophilic end-capping, Aquasil C18 columns offer a unique material for reversed phase chromatography, offering alternative selectivity, up to twice the retention for polar compounds, and no phase collapse under 100% aqueous conditions. Ideal for use with LC/MS, these columns maintain selectivity with reduced concentrations of buffers and additives.

  • Different retention and selectivity to conventional C18
  • Excellent peak shapes for basic, acidic and neutral compounds
  • Polar molecule retention twice as strong as conventional C18
  • Compatible with 100% aqueous mobile phase
  • Excellent results with low buffer concentrations
