Chromatography column sets supplied by LabChoice Australia provide reliable, high clarity and chemically inert separation vessels for preparative and analytical chromatography workflows used in research, teaching and industrial laboratories. Manufactured from premium BORO 3.3 borosilicate glass that complies with ISO 3585 and ASTM E438 Type 1 Class A standards, these columns deliver excellent thermal stability, solvent compatibility and structural strength. The transparent glass construction supports real time observation of packing quality, solvent fronts and separation progression, ensuring accuracy during purification of organic compounds, natural products, dyes, pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals.
Each column set includes precision engineered components such as interchangeable joints, PTFE stopcocks, fritted discs and optional flow control accessories depending on configuration. Ground glass joints conform to ISO 383 and ASTM E676 specifications, providing full interchangeability with laboratory fittings, adapters and collection systems. Columns incorporate uniformly fused sintered glass frits available in various porosities to support stable packing, consistent flow and efficient retention of stationary phases including silica gel, alumina and ion exchange resins. The high clarity BORO 3.3 body ensures uniform distribution of sample and eluent, minimising channeling and improving separation resolution.
Chromatography column sets are widely used in organic synthesis purification, phytochemical extraction, dye and pigment isolation, environmental sample cleanup, food chemistry, academic research and quality control environments. Their robust construction allows use with solvents ranging from non polar hydrocarbons to polar protic solvents, acids and bases. Columns can be operated under gravity flow or low pressure systems, supporting flexible workflows for column chromatography, flash separations and method development.
All chromatography column sets supplied by LabChoice Australia undergo ISO 9001 aligned quality control inspection. This includes dimensional verification, frit porosity testing, stopcock leak assessment, joint taper conformity checks, thermal shock evaluation and chemical resistance validation performed in accordance with ASTM D543 principles where applicable. Columns are fully validated for compliance with ISO 3585 and ASTM E438 borosilicate performance standards, ensuring reproducible separations, long term durability and consistent analytical reliability.
