Waters acquires Thar Instruments
Waters Corporation has acquired all of the remaining outstanding capital stock of privately held Pittsburgh-based Thar Instruments, the world’s largest supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) manufacturer.
Considered a leading ‘green’ analytical and purification technology, Thar’s SFC and extraction systems are used to separate, isolate and quantify chemical compounds. The principles of SFC are similar to those of liquid chromatography; however, SFC typically uses carbon dioxide as the main mobile phase. Carbon dioxide offers environmental and cost benefits compared to liquid chromatography solvents.
Thar products are used in pharmaceutical, life science, chemical and petrochemical companies, as well as government agencies, research institutions and universities.
