Thank you for purchasing the Shodex

 product. Shodex

 IC SI-52 4E is a suppressor type ion chromatography 

column for analysis of anions, using sodium carbonate eluents. The column is suitable for the 

simultaneous 

analysis of oxyhalides including chlorite, chlorite, and bromate, and standard inorganic anions including fluoride, 
chloride, nitrite, bromide, nitrate, phosphate, and sulfate.
