Packings pressure-stable

As a practical result, the amount of gel to be prepared for a preparative column must exceed the nominal volume of the final column by 10%. For the packing of production-scale columns the maximum pressure rate of the column has to be considered. The large columns consist mostly of borosilicate glass tubes with similar pressure stabilities. For example, a Superformance column with dimensions of 1000 mm in length and 50 mm in width is pressure stable up to 14 bar. Therefore, Fractogel EMD BioSEC should be packed with a... 

Size exclusion chromatography (SEC, also known as GPC and GFC) has become a very well accepted separation method since its introduction in the late-1950s by works of Porath and Flodin (1) and Moore (2). Polymers Standards Service (PSS) packings for SEC/SEC columns share this long-standing tradition as universal and stable sorbents for all types of polymer applications. In general, PSS SEC columns are filled with spherical, macroporous cross-linked, pressure-stable, and pH-resistant polymeric gels. 

Consequently, the major experimental options for the analyst are packed or capillary SFC, mobile phase with/without modifier and off-line or on-line mode, namely direct deposition (DD-SFC-FUR) vs. flowcell. Both small-bore packed columns and narrow-bore open-tubular columns have been used for SFC-FTIR analysis using a pressure-stable, thermostated, flow-cell or solvent elimination interfaces.

Pore size of commercial materials varies from very small to very large, depending on the application. For each pore size, the volume is balanced against the need for a pressure-stable particle. In a study of commercial silica-based SEC packings, the p particle varied from 55 to 80% (34). 

A very important factor for successful HPLC separation is the correct choice of column packing. In the past, many different packing materials were tested, for instance, powdered sugar, diatomaceous earth, aluminum oxide, calcium carbonate, calcium hydroxide, magnesium oxide. Fuller s earth, and silica. Today, silica is generally u.sed as the basis for adsorbent chromatography aluminum oxide is also used to a certain extent. Both materials are pressure stable and are unaffected by pH over a wide range. 

Polyamide as a stationary phase is used mainly for the separation of compounds that can form hydrogen bonds to the amide group. A typical example is the separation of phenolic compounds on polyamide, due to hydrogen bonds between the phenolic hydroxyl and the amide groups [80]. The drawback of these polyamide packings is that they are not as pressure stable as silica and that undesired swelling of the phase can occur with certain solvents. 

One modification of polyethylene (PE), which appears to be stable at high temperatures and pressures (see Sect. 3.2), also presents a pseudohexagonal packing and a disorderd chain conformation [59],...
