1. INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing our COSMOSIL Packed Columns for fullerenes. Please read this manual carefully before use to ensure maximum
efficiency and a long column life.
2. TYPES OF STATIONARY PHASES AND THEIR CHARACTERISTICS
COSMOSIL Packed Columns for fullerenes are packed with the silica gel that bonded specially designed stationary phase. Our columns are
shown in Table 1. Please choose the column suitable for your samples.
