Modified silica

The reseai ch has been carried out by the liquid chromatograph Perkin-Elmer (Series 200), which has tandem detectors the diode array (X=210 nm) and the refractometer. The temperature of a column was 30 C, speed of a mobile phase is 1.5 ml/ min. As a mobile phase, mixtures of solvents methanol - water and acetonitrile - water with addition of sodium perchlorate. The columns with the modified silica gel C8 and Cl8 (4.6x220 mm, 5 pm) were used for sepai ation of the AIST and FAS components. In order to make the identification of AIST and FAS components more reliable the ratio of the values of the above-mentioned detectors signals of each substance analyzed. 

It was shown that X-Ray-fluorescence method do possible to separate metals in the multycomponents samples by different methods of synthesis chemical modified silica and different ways of coordination of ion metals on the surface. 

CONCENTRATION OF ANTIBIOTICS (CEFAZOLINE AND LEVOMYCETINE) ON THE MODIFIED SILICA...

In the case of substances whose structures are pH-dependent (e.g. phenols, carboxylic and sulfonic acids, amines etc.) it is possible to produce fluorescences or make them disappear by the deliberate manipulation of the pH [213] (Table 20). Shifts of the positions of the absorption and emission bands have also been reported. This is particularly to be observed in the case of modified silica gels, some of which are markedly acidic or basic in reaction (Table 25). 

PSS columns for fluorinated eluents PSS PFG columns were developed by PSS because users worldwide were unsatisfied with the stability of conventional organic SEC columns when running solvents such as hexafluroisopropa-nol (HFIP). Because polymeric gels tend to be unstable in fluorinated media, PSS modified silica to achieve better stability while maintaining perfect chromatographic performance. 

Another example is the determination of bentazone in aqueous samples. Bentazone is a common medium-polar pesticide, and is an acidic compound which co-elutes with humic and/or fulvic acids. In this application, two additional boundary conditions are important. Eirst, the pH of the M-1 mobile phase should be as low as possible for processing large sample volumes, with a pH of 2.3 being about the best that one can achieve when working with alkyl-modified silicas. Secondly, modifier gradients should be avoided in order to prevent interferences caused by the continuous release of humic and/or fulvic acids from the column during the gradient (46). 

With regard to the resolution of enantiomers, some applications can be found with modified silica gel supports. Thus, a Pirkle-type CSP was used for the separation of 200 mg of a racemic benzodiazepinone [75]. Also tris-(3,5-dimethylphenyl)carba-mate of cellulose coated on silica [91, 92] was applied successfully to the resolution of the enantiomers of 2-phenoxypropionic acid and to oxprenolol, alprenolol, propranolol among other basic drugs. However, the low efficiency of this technique and the relative high price of the CSPs limits its use to the resolution of milligram range of sample. 

The dried polyoxazoline-modified silica gel was immersed into distilled water. The adsorption property of the resulting gel was estimated by the water content. The water uptake was calculated from an expression of (W -W)jW, where Wis the weight of dried gel and W is the weight of water-absorbed gel. The modified gel showed a higher water-adsorption property than that of untreated silica gel, which absorbed 10.8 multiples of water. The water uptake of modified gel was up to 13.7 multiples of the weight of dried gel. Thus, silica gel has been made more hydrophilic by a polyoxazoline segment. 

The obtained gels were purified by Soxhlet extraction with chloroform to remove the unreacted polyoxazoline. Table 6 summarizes the results of the preparation of polymer hybrids together with their water adsorptions. In comparison with the silica gel without polyoxazoline segments, the modified silica with 50% polyoxazoline was found to show higher water adsorption.

These poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazoline) silane coupling agents were copolycondensed with tetraethoxysilane by acid-catalyst to produce poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazoline)-modified silica gel. The composite gel from 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline was also homogeneous and transparent glass. Poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazoline)-modified silica gels, especially gels based on poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) absorbed water and also organic solvents such as DMF or alcohols as shown in Table 7. This result means that the obtained composite gel shows the amphiphilic adsorption property. 

The most widely used columns contain a chemically modified silica stationary phase, with the chemical modification determining the polarity of the column. A... 

Thus, the APDS-modified carbon black provides viscoelastic properties comparable to TESPT-modified silica, which is now well known to be better in terms of hysteresis and hence roUing resistance compared to conventional carbon black. 

RARE EARTH MODIFIED SILICA-ALUMINAS AS SUPPORTS FOR BIFUNCTIONAL CATALYSIS... 

We also see (Fig. 6) that raising the calcination temperature of rare earth modified silica-aluminas from 500 to 600°C, may slightly sinter the rare earth oxide. Although the x-ray pattern... 

We compared Pt/silica-alumina, yttria-modified silica-alumina, and fluorided alumina for n-Ci2 isomerization. Not surprisingly, increasing yttria content lowers catalyst activity at a fixed space velocity (Fig. 10). The 9% Y203/Si-Al catalyst compares closely to the 1%F/Al203 catalyst in activity. Of the catalysts evaluated here, the 9%Y203-loaded Si-Al had higher isomerization selectivity at equal conversion (Fig. 11).

The most frequently used sorbent type for straight phase chromatographic systems in planar chromatography is porous, nonsurface-modified silica gel. 

In reversed-phase TLC, mobile phases with high eontent of water do not wet alkyl-bonded siliea layers unless partially modified silica plates are used. It is well known that high-viscosity solvents do not generate the same plate number as low-viscosity solvents because of the solute diffusion coefficient and slow mass transfer [21]. 

Nonmodified silica gel is used most commonly for the separation of substances of medical interest. The separation is based on the interactions (hydrogen bonding, van der Waals forces, and ionic bonding) between the molecules of drugs, lipids, bile acids, etc., and the silica gel. Alumina has similar properties but is rarely used. Successful separation of endogenous substances, drugs, or their metabolites can also be achieved using physically or chemically modified silica gel.
