General
YMC*Gel C1 shows lower retention due to hydrophobic interaction than other reversed phase packing materials. It is useful for fast separations of highly hydrophobic samples that exhibit strong retention characteristics
and are difficult or impossible to separate on conventional reversed phase packings. In addition, YMC*Gel C1 can sometimes achieve greater retention and better separations of hydrophilic compounds than other reversed phase columns.
Properties
YMC*Gel C1 is bonded with trimethylmonochlorosilane to create a phase with intermediate polarity
for separation of extremely hydrophobic compounds using conventional reversed phase solvents
and highly polar compounds using highly aqueous solvents.
The unique chemistry of YMC*Gel C1 is also well-suited for the analysis of multifunctional compounds. Selectivity
characteristics of a C1 bonded phase can be unique, and samples must be tested to determine
the applicability of the phase. |
