Hypercarb™ PREP HPLC Columns

Conquer difficult separations using the unique Thermo Scientific™ Hypercarb™ Porous Graphitic Carbon preparative HPLC columns which are 100% porous graphitic carbon for extended separation capabilities in both normal phase and reversed phase applications. Hypercarb columns offer improved retention of polar compounds and separation of structurally related analytes with stability at pH extremes. Our columns come in a variety of dimensions and an option for XtendedLife hardware which improves column lifetime by maintaining a uniform packed bed.

Suited to solve problem separations

• Remarkable retention of very polar analytes.
• Accurate orthogonality to C18.
• Separates structurally related substances.
• Stable between pH 0 and 14.
• Great for high temperature applications.
• 100% stainless-steel column hardware - suggest remove not relevant in context.
• Porous graphitic carbon (L109) selectivity.

Preparative HPLC Column Hardware Options - based on column inner diameter (i.d.) and column performance needs.

Standard Threaded and Standard Flange Hardware

• Designed for standard applications, expertly packed and robustly designed to provide versatile products for routine use.
• Standard threaded hardware for column i.d. < 40mm.
• Standard flange hardware for column i.d. ≥ 40mm.
• Standard hardware can be modified on request to be compatible with SFC.

XtendedLife Hardware

• Improves column lifetime by incorporating an internal Dynamic Axial Compression (DAC) system, ensuring the media bed is continuously packed tightly.
• Compatible with SFC and is available in dimensions up to 50mm i.d.

Preparative Guards are a proven and cost effective way to extend the lifetime of your prep column. Our preparative guard columns require the use of a preparative guard holder.
