• HPLC Column: Exsil 100 Octyl is a type of column used in HPLC, a technique for separating compounds in a mixture based on their differing interactions with a stationary phase (the column packing) and a mobile phase (the liquid solvent).
• Reversed-Phase: The "reversed-phase" aspect indicates that the stationary phase is non-polar (like the C8 chain) and the mobile phase is typically a polar solvent (like a mixture of water and acetonitrile).
• C8 (Octyl) Phase: The C8 phase is a hydrocarbon chain (octyl group) chemically bonded to the silica support of the column. This provides a hydrophobic (water-repelling) surface that interacts with non-polar compounds in the sample, causing them to elute (come off the column) later than more polar compounds.
• Applications: Exsil 100 Octyl columns are versatile and can be used for many applications, including pharmaceuticals, environmental analysis, and food chemistry.
• Deactivation: The Exsil 100 range, including the Octyl-B phase, is known for its high level of deactivation, allowing it to chromatograph strong bases even in the absence of buffer solutions.
• Exsil 100: Columns with a pore size of 100 Å Angstroms (10 nm)
