OPTIMA® 1 – STATIONARY PHASE: 100% Dimethylpolysiloxane

OPTIMA 1 – Non-Polar Phase

  • For columns with 0.1-0.32 mm ID and films < 3 µm the max. temperature for isothermal operation is 340°C, the max. temperature for short isotherms in a temperature program is 360°C
  • For 0.53 mm ID columns with films < 3 µm the max. temperatures are 320°C and 340°C, resp.
  • For thick film columns with films = 3 µm the max. temperatures are 300°C and 320°C, resp.
  • Thick film columns = 3 µm film are recommended for solvent analysis
  • Separation of components according to boiling points
  • USP G1 / G2 / G38
