Equisorb Si

Unmodified Silica Column for Classical Normal-Phase Chromatography

Equisorb Si is a bare silica HPLC column based on fully porous, high-purity silica, designed for normal-phase and adsorption chromatography. Its active silanol surface provides strong polar retention mechanisms, including hydrogen bonding and dipole-dipole interactions. Equisorb Si is ideal for separating polar compounds, isomers, and neutral organics, offering a cost-effective and stable platform for traditional chromatography methods using non-polar mobile phases.

Equisorb Si delivers reliable and traditional polar retention – a dependable choice for laboratories employing normal-phase and adsorption chromatographic techniques.

Key Features

  • Unmodified silica (USP L3) for normal-phase and adsorption chromatography

  • Strong silanol-based interactions for polar analyte retention

  • Fully porous silica with consistent particle structure

  • Compatible with non-polar solvents (e.g. hexane, heptane, ethyl acetate)

  • Available in 3 µm, 5 µm and 10 µm particle sizes

Typical Applications

  • Separation of polar organics and structural isomers

  • Adsorption-based sample preparation and dry-loading techniques

  • Normal-phase workflows in pharmaceutical, botanical, or chemical analysis

  • Classical method development using silica-based selectivity
