1) Theoretical plates listed are based on smallest particle size listed
2) High-temperature columns (HT) are shipped with OCDB (Orthochlorodivinylbenzene) as standard shipping
solvent.
3) Switching from THF to dichloromethane and dichloroethane is not recommended for G1000 pore size
columns.
4) See our website for available shipping solvents
5) After switching to a very polar solvent such as acetone,
switching back to a nonpolar solvent is not recommended.
HIGHLIGHTS
Porous, highly cross-linked, spherical polystyrene divinylbenzene
(PS-DVB) resin.
Five different TSKgel H-type columns are available. Each of these
are packed with different particle sizes (see table below).
Expanded molecular weight ranges with exclusion limits from 1,000
Da to an estimated 4 x 10
8
Da
Minimal shrinking and swelling of the column bed
Chemically and thermally stable
Use 4.6 & 6.0 mm ID SuperMultiporeHZ, SuperHZ and Super H
columns for reduced solvent consumption in high throughput
analysis.
SuperMultiporeHZ and MultiporeH
XL
columns provide linear
calibration curves over a wider MW range.
Semi-micro SuperHZ columns now available as multipore columns
with linear calibration curves.
TSKgel H Series columns are recommended for the analysis of organic-
soluble polymers and are packed with spherical particles composed
of polystyrene cross-linked with divinylbenzene (PS-DVB). Each line
of columns within this series differs in degree of inertness and operat-
ing temperature range. The packings are available in eight pore sizes
and span four different column chemistries. For polymer samples with
a broad molecular range, packing of several pore sizes are provided
in the mixed bed columns: TSKgel SuperHZM series, TSKgel SuperHM
series, TSKgel GMH
XL
, TSKgel GMH
HR
, and selected high temperature
versions provide linear calibration curves up to several million Daltons
(see page 53).
Column Selection
The Super prefix refers to the efficiency of the column. The Super series
columns contain ultra efficient particles as small as 3 µm, housed in
15 cm length columns. The smaller particle allows for equivalent
resolution to conventional H
XL
columns, with 50% less run time due to
the shorter column length. The Super series columns are an excellent
choice for high throughput polymer analysis.
