Description
OPTIMA 210 is a capillary column for gas chromatography offering an internal diameter of 0,25 mm, a film thickness of 0,50 µm and a column length of 60 m. The column is defined by these geometric parameters so GC laboratories can align internal diameter, film and length with validated methods. A 0,25 mm ID is suitable for capillary GC practice, while the 0,50 µm film combined with the 60 m length sets the separation path in one continuous capillary. Supplied as a single piece per pack, it is intended for direct use in instruments configured for this ID and film thickness. OPTIMA 210 from manufacturer Macherey-Nagel provides a clearly dimensioned GC column option when protocols specify 0,25 mm internal diameter, 0,50 µm film and 60 m length. The longer 60 m format supports applications that call for extended path length at the stated film thickness. One-piece packaging eases stock management and column replacement in analytical laboratories. Consistent specification of ID, film thickness and length helps maintain method continuity when exchanging OPTIMA 210 capillaries of the same geometry.

Questions about OPTIMA 210, 0.25 mm ID, 0.50 µm, 60 m
What is this article?
OPTIMA 210, 0.25 mm ID, 0.50 µm, 60 m is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Macherey-Nagel for laboratory use. It sits in GC capillary columns, inside GC columns & accessories, in Chromatography equipment.
A GC capillary column is specified by the phase, the length, the internal diameter and the film thickness. A thicker film retains longer and takes a higher load. A narrow bore gives sharper peaks and needs a cleaner sample. The maximum temperature of the phase is a hard limit.
A GC capillary column is a long open tube with a stationary phase coated on the wall. The sample is a vapour, carried by gas. The phase, the film thickness, the length and the internal diameter decide which compounds separate and how long it takes. A liner is the glass sleeve in the injector. It is a consumable: it collects the non-volatile dirt. The septum and the syringe are the other parts that leak or shed. Compound identity sits on PubChem under IUPAC names.
