HPLC Column Ultisil, XB-C8, 120 Å, 3 µm, 4.6 x 30 mm

The XB-C8 phase is less retentive than XB-C18 phase, useful for strong hydrophobic compounds that are too strongly retained on C18 phase, and for LC/MS pplications, where long retention is not desired. When separating neutral or other highly retained compounds, XB-C8 can save analytical time. However, when separating polar compounds, XB-C8 column provides different selectivity than does XB-C18 column.
