The performance of the Shaper columns comes firstly from the quality of the silica used.
The natural silica of the Shaper columns is composed of homogenously sized spherical particles.
As shown in the table, the Shaper silica has a very low content in metal.
We have chosen to display our columns made from a 100A pore-sized silica, which is the ideal size for small molecules separation.
Our range also features other sizes of pores.
The specific surface of the Shaper silica is 310m2/g for 100A..
The narrow distribution of particle size, combined with a specific surface and an optimal pore volume allows for robust particles with excellent retention characteristics.
