High-performance liquid chromatographic stationary phases based on poly(dimethylsiloxane) immobilized on silica

J Chromatogr A. 2005 May 20;1075(1-2):87-94. doi: 10.1016/j.chroma.2005.03.110.

Abstract

This work describes the preparation and characterization of six stationary phases for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) obtained by deposition of poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) in HPLC silica particles, followed by immobilization using different processes (thermal treatments, thermal treatment + microwave irradiation, self-immobilization + gamma irradiation and self-immobilization + microwave irradiation). The chromatographic parameters of all the phases were evaluated with a mixture of test compounds having varied natures (acid, basic and neutral). The stability of one of these phases was evaluated in both a neutral mobile phase and a higher pH mobile phase used at an elevated temperature, with promising results.
