Exsil 100 SCX

Strong Cation-Exchange Silica for Ion-Exchange HPLC of Basic Compounds

Exsil 100 SCX is a strong cation-exchange (SCX) HPLC stationary phase based on high-purity Exsil 100 silica with a nominal pore size of 100 Å. The sulfonic acid functional groups provide a permanently charged surface, enabling strong and reproducible electrostatic interactions with positively charged analytes.

The strong cation-exchange surface chemistry makes Exsil 100 SCX particularly suitable for the separation of basic and cationic small molecules over a wide pH range. The phase delivers high retention strength, stable selectivity, and robust chromatographic performance, making it well suited for both routine analysis and method development in ion-exchange HPLC.

Controlled silica synthesis and robust surface modification ensure excellent batch-to-batch reproducibility, consistent chromatographic behavior, and reliable long-term performance.

Exsil 100 SCX provides strong and reproducible cation-exchange selectivity combined with robust performance, making it a reliable choice for ion-exchange HPLC separations of positively charged small molecules.
