HILICpak VG-50 4E, 4.6 x 250 mm, HPLC column

The HILICpak VG-50 HPLC column 250x4.6mm, 5µm, is packed with an amino-functionalised polyvinyl alcohol phase. HILICpak VG-50 separates sugars and other highly polar compounds in HILIC mode and is suitable for RI, ELSD, CAD and LC-MS detection. The polymer-based material is resistant to hydrolytic ageing and can, if required, be cleaned under alkaline conditions where appropriate.

Features and Benefits

• Polymer-based HILIC phases
• Neutral and ionic selectivities
• High stability in aqueous-organic eluents
• Suitable for LC-MS and aerosol detectors
• Focus on highly polar analytes

Additional Notes

HILICpak uses porous polyvinyl alcohol particles as a hydrophilic backbone. The PVA matrix carries amino, diol, carboxyl, or quaternary ammonium groups, thereby enabling HILIC separations with neutral, anionic, or cationic secondary interactions. Unlike silica-based amino phases, the polymer material is less susceptible to hydrolytic aging. The choice of modification depends on the charge, hydrogen-bonding ability, and polarity of the target analytes.
