Silica gel based KNAUER columns for HPLC and UHPLC in the most often used separation modes
Classical Reversed Phase columns for HPLC and UHPLC
Most often used stationary phase in reversed phase mode. Silica gel based columns with C18 modification are available with or without endcapping. Classically endcapped phases are slightly more hydrophobic and unpolar than the not endcapped phases.
C18 columns are ideally used for acidic, basic and neutral analytes in reversed phase mode, e.g.:
C18 A or AQ columns for polar reversed phase applications with 100 % aqueous mobile phase
C18 stationary phase for the analysis of more polar and hydrophilic compounds in reversed phase mode (USP L1). Silica gel based columns with C18 modification with hydrophilic endcapping. Because of their modification, C18A or C18 aq phases can be operated under 100 % aqueous conditions without destroying the stationary phase, what is not recommended for classical C18 phases caused by their hydrophobicity.
These phases are ideal for the analysis of:
Columns for more unpolar analytes in Reversed Phase
C18 stationary phase with a special, high efficiency or polymeric unpolar endcapping style. Because of the high carbon content and the protection of the Silica gel these materials are also suited for the use of mobile phase in an extended pH range from typically pH 1-12.
While a high endcapped C18 phase is characterized mostly by the high carbon content, a polymeric endcapped phase also provides an increased steric selectivity.
Hydrophobic and polar characteristics combined
C18 stationary phase for the analysis of more polar and hydrophilic compounds in reversed phase mode. Silica gel based columns with C18 modification with hydrophilic endcapping.
These phases are ideal for the analysis of:
Classical C8 columns for HPLC and UHPLC
C8 is a silica gel based stationary phase in reversed phase mode with alternative selectivity compared to C18 phases. C8 modifications are available with a slightly hydrophobic endcapping or without endcapping.
Compared to C18 phases, these columns show less retention due to the lower hydrophobicity.
These phases are ideal for the analysis of:
C8A columns for highly polar reversed phase applications with 100 % aqueous mobile phase
Hydrophilic C8A phase with alternative, more polar selectivity, suited for the use with pure aqueous mobile phases
Alternative selectivity to C8 with stronger interactions for polar compounds; 100% aqueous applications with very polar compounds.
Columns for more unpolar analytes in Reversed Phase
The C8 stationary phase in Reversed Phase mode has alternative selectivity compared to C18 phases. The silica gel based columns feature a C8 modification with full hydrophobic endcapping and base deactivation, making them stable over a wider pH range.
Hydrophobic and polar characteristics combined in C8 columns with polar embedded group
C8 stationary phase for the analysis of more polar and hydrophilic compounds in reversed phase mode. Silica gel based columns with C8 modification with hydrophilic endcapping.
These phases are ideal for the analysis of:
pharmaceuticals, where analytes often have basic or acidic groups. For the separation of these compounds these supports exhibit an enhanced polar selectivity. That means: In comparison to a classical bonded C8 column acidic compounds show a higher retention whereas basic compounds show a slight decrease of retention on an embedded polar column
Cyano or CN for Normal Phase and Reversed Phase
CN is one of the most versatile stationary phases that can be used in reversed phase mode as well as in normal phase mode.
The cyano modification supports the pi-pi interaction as well as polar and hydrophobic interactions with low polarity solvents. These phases are preferred for compounds with double bonds and aromatic groups. Cyano bonded phases show unique selectivity for polar compounds and are more suitable than bare silica for normal-phase gradient separations. The cyano functional group is a strong dipole that can interact with other dipoles or induce dipoles on solutes. These phases also exhibit moderate hydrophobicity due to the alkyl linker.
Due to the quick equilibration time of the CN bonded phase, it is the best choice for gradient elution in normal phase mode. CN phases can be used as a less polar alternative to Si phases.
The material is typically preferred for
C1 columns for reversed phase applications
C1 stationary phases show the lowest retention of all reversed phase phases on the market. The application area is mainly the separation of nonpolar solutes. It can also be used for the separation of proteins in the HIC mode.
The C1 phases from KNAUER are available without endcapping.
C4 columns for Reversed Phase in HPLC and UHPLC
C4 stationary phases (USP L26) are often used in reversed phase mode for different application areas. They are suitable for:
C30 for Reversed Phase applications
C30是高碳负载的固定相。The high coverage of the support results in a very dense packing and in an excellent shape selectivity and stability even at pH 1. The C30-bonding type is available with several pore sizes and in several particle sizes. Especially the wide pore supports are showing enhanced shape selectivity.
The application field of the C30 packings is the separation of isomers of carotonoides and other long alkyl chain solutes, that cannot be separated on classical C18 columns.
Phenyl columns for Reversed Phase in HPLC and UHPLC
Phenyl stationary phases (USP L11) in reversed phase mode with alternative selectivity for
Si columns for Normal Phase and HILIC applications
Unmodified Silica gel materials were the first ones used for chromatography. This is the reason the mode is called "Normal phase" (NP). They are still used in HPLC, although Reversed Phase (NP) is by far the most often used HPLC mode today.
A wide range of porous Si materials is available, characterized by:
Amino columns for Normal Phase and HILIC applications
Amino (NH2) bonded silica gel phases can be used ideally in the normal phase and HILIC mode. They show alternative normal-phase selectivity to unbonded silica, especially for aromatics.
Amino columns can also be used in the HILIC mode for carbohydrate analysis and for other polar compounds. Their weak anion-exchange properties can be used in the analysis of anions and organic acids.
Typically, the amino group is bonded to the silica support via a propyl linker.
Most Amino phases shown here come without endcapping, only ProntoSIL Amino E is a fully endcapped amino propyl bonded phase.
Diol columns for Normal Phase in HPLC and UHPLC
Diol packing material can be universally used in different polar modes (NP, RP and HILIC). Diol bonded phases are a versatile alternative to unbonded silica for normal-phase separations with shorter equilibration times.
提供良好的选择性无羟基组ut excessive retention, caused by the weaker H-bonding of the diol layer than of silanols. Some diol bonded phases have been developed specifically for applications in the HILIC mode.

Zwitterionic and polar columns for HILIC applications
Based on ultra-pure Silica gel, zwitterionic HILIC phases are ideal for the analysis of polar and ionizable compounds. Stronger interaction of more polar compounds with stationary aqueous layer.
Faster elution of nonpolar compounds is possible due to minor hydrophobic interactions. Retention increases with the charge of the analyte.
Recommended for the analysis of hydrophilic compounds like:
