What column particle sizes are compatible with an HPLC system? - WKB72566

Article number: 72566

ENVIRONMENT

  • Column particle size
  • HPLC
  • Alliance

ANSWER

Column particle sizes of 2.7, 3, 3.5, 4, 5 and larger are compatible with HPLC systems.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

A particle size packed into different column dimensions will produce back pressure at a given method flow rate, temperature, and mobile phase. Smaller particles in longer columns will produce higher back pressure that could exceed the pressure limit of the HPLC pump.
