Key Features:
1. Acid-Modified PEG Phase
Composition: Nitroterephthalic acid modified polyethylene glycol.
Polarity: Highly polar. Provides unique selectivity for acidic and oxygenated compounds.
2. Superior Water & Acid Tolerance
Unlike standard PEG (Wax) columns that degrade quickly in acidic environments, the CBX-FFAP is chemically bonded and cross-linked. It can directly inject aqueous samples and free acids (down to pH < 1) without phase stripping or column damage.
3. Excellent Peak Symmetry
The active deactivation process combined with the acid-modified phase ensures sharp, symmetric peaks for carboxylic acids, completely eliminating the severe tailing seen on conventional columns.
4. Solvent Rinseable
The robust cross-linking technology allows the column to be rinsed with specific solvents to remove non-volatile residues, extending column life.
