What is the maximum flow rate for the XBridge Shield RP18, 3.5µm, 4.6x50mm column (186003042)? - WKB123758
Article number: 123758
ENVIRONMENT
- XBridge Shield RP18
- Column care and use
ANSWER
The answer is complicated because the flow rate will directly impact both the chromatographic efficiency of the separation and the mechanical integrity of the column. Suggested upper flow rates for this column would be 1.2-1.5 mL/min, to balance both efficiency and potential wear and tear on the column materials.
