The Shodex IC Y-521 ion chromatography column 150x4.6mm, 12µm, contains sulfonic groups on a styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer and functions as a strong cation exchanger. Shodex IC Y-521 is designed for the non-suppressed analysis of monovalent and divalent cations and separates, depending on the eluent, alkaline earth metals, selected other metal ions and alkylamines. The robust polymer phase corresponds to USP packing materials L17 and L22 and is used in water, food and pharmaceutical analyses.
The IC Series primarily consists of polymer-based ion exchangers with polyvinyl alcohol or polymethacrylate backbones, as well as YK-421, a silica-based cation exchange phase. Quaternary ammonium groups provide strong anion exchange selectivity, while carboxyl groups are used for cation separation. Particle size, exchange capacity, and surface chemistry are optimized for carbonate, hydroxide, or non-suppressed eluent systems, depending on the column.
Shodex is a registered trademark of Resonac Corporation, Tokyo, Japan. The IC Series is a product line within the Shodex portfolio.
