Trajan (SGE)

Trajan (SGE) has a long history developing and producing GC capillary columns, with SGE’s founder Ernest Dawes first being involved making glass capillary columns in 1959. That expertise has been built upon with the development of leading capabilities in glass technology, polymer synthesis, surface chemistry and production processes all combined with an intimate knowledge of chromatography. Trajan (SGE) develops and synthesizes specialty polymers leading to Trajan (SGE) being the first, and often only, capillary chromatography company to offer many types of GC stationary phases. Trajan (SGE) was the first to introduce the now industry standard silarylene phases in 1987 with their improved thermal stability, as well as SolGel in 1999 and the carborane phases in 1987.
