Description
OPTIMA WAX is a capillary gas chromatography column with an internal diameter of 0,25 mm, a stationary-film thickness of 0,25 µm, and a length of 30 m. The longer bed relative to shorter WAX formats supports improved separation of polar analytes under typical GC temperature programmes while retaining the familiar 0,25 mm ID geometry used across many laboratory methods. Supplied as one column per pack, it is intended for installation in standard capillary GC systems. This OPTIMA WAX column from manufacturer Macherey-Nagel provides a defined polyethylene glycol-type selectivity suited to polar compound analysis in research and quality-control workflows. Specifying ID, film thickness, and length together ensures correct matching to validated methods that call for 0,25 mm × 0,25 µm × 30 m WAX dimensions. Select this 30 m capillary column when your application needs additional plate count or retention on a WAX phase without changing internal diameter or film thickness, and when a single-piece laboratory pack is preferred for chromatography inventory.
This article is part of GC capillary columns, in GC columns & accessories.

Questions about OPTIMA WAX, 0.25 mm ID, 0.25 µm, 30 m
What is this article?
OPTIMA WAX, 0.25 mm ID, 0.25 µm, 30 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.
