Description
OPTIMA 5 MS is a capillary column for gas chromatography with an inner diameter of 0,20 mm, a film thickness of 0,20 µm and a length of 12 m. These compact dimensions suit GC setups that specify a narrower bore, thinner film and shorter column length within the OPTIMA 5 MS series. The product is packed as a single piece and is intended for laboratory gas chromatography systems using capillary columns. Consistent ID, film thickness and length help match instrument configuration to method requirements. This OPTIMA 5 MS capillary column from manufacturer Macherey-Nagel is categorised under GC chromatography columns and is supplied as 1 pc. Laboratories can deploy the 0,20 mm ID / 0,20 µm / 12 m format whenever analytical procedures call for exactly these parameters. The single-unit packaging supports clear inventory control and straightforward installation on compatible GC instruments. Choose this column when your workflow requires the OPTIMA 5 MS designation together with 0,20 mm inner diameter, 0,20 µm film thickness and 12 m length.
This article is part of GC capillary columns, in GC columns & accessories.

Questions about OPTIMA 5 MS, 0.20 mm ID, 0.20 µm, 12 m
What is this article?
OPTIMA 5 MS, 0.20 mm ID, 0.20 µm, 12 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.
