Porapak P is a porous polymer bead packing material for gas chromatography, offering advantages over traditional materials. It provides an extended liquid surface, preventing issues with support, polarity, volatility, or freezing. This yields sharp, symmetrical peaks and low retention volumes for compounds like water, alcohols, and glycols.
- Porous polymer bead construction.
- Low polarity.
- High surface area (100 to 200 m2/g) and density (0.27 g/cm3).
- Maximum temperature stability up to 250°C in oxygen-free atmosphere.
- Prevents bleed and adsorption of polar compounds.
- Ensures consistent retention times and delivers sharp, symmetrical peaks.
- Allows easy, efficient column packing and rapid overload recovery.
- Low retention volumes for water, alcohols, and glycols.
