SHINCARBON A, Carbon Supports

SHINCARBON A is a highly purified carbon support for GC manufactured by firing a synthetic polymer, which is then highly deactivated. This product is highly heat and water resistant.

Features
· This carbon support is highly deactivated, and is extremely stable both physically and chemically. Polar compounds such as alcohols and fatty acids are not adsorbed on its surface.
· SHINCARBON A's stationary phase retention and separation capabilities are comparable with diatomaceous earth supports.
· As it consists of 100% carbon, it can be used at high temperatures under inert gas atmospheres.
· As this material is a vitreous carbon, it possesses high mechanical strength and does not generate fine particles. This results in high carrier gas permeabilities, lower column pressures, and improved separation efficiencies.
· As this is a chemically synthesized product rather than a natural product like diatomaceous earth, there are no deviations between lots.
