The Kinetex EVO C18 Ultra-high performance HPLC column incorporates a patented organo-silica grafting process that uses uniform stabilizing ethane cross-linking to provide pH stability from 1-12.
The columns are an extension of the Phenomenex Kinetex core-shell line, which the manufacturer says delivers improved results, increased productivity, easy transferability and significant cost savings compared to traditional HPLC/UHPLC media. The wide pH 1 to 12 stability and improved peak shape for bases make the Kinetex 5 µm EVO C18 suitable for analytical and preparative HPLC methods at a variety of challenging pH levels such as those in open access labs.
With the introduction of the 5 µm Kinetex EVO C18 particle, HPLC and preparative HPLC users can utilize 3 µm or better efficiencies and low backpressures to easily replace traditional hybrid materials and run at higher linear flow rates to compress long run times. Additional Kinetex EVO C18 core-shell particles, including those for UHPLC, are scheduled to be introduced very soon. Phenomenex
