C18 Columns

HPLC columns with octadecyl (ODS or C18) functionalized phases. GL Sciences C18 columns feature high end-capping resulting in extremely low operating back-pressure, superior inertness and wide solvent compatibility. Inertsil ODS columns have long been widely used in the analysis of compounds in pharmaceutical, food & beverage, mining, petrochemical and other industries. New InertSustain and InertCore C18 columns further provide more features and better performance. Explore our selection of C18 columns available in a wide variety of particle sizes and dimensions.
