Exsil 300 Si

Wide-Pore Bare Silica for Normal-Phase and HILIC Chromatography

Exsil 300 Si is a high-purity 300 Å wide-pore silica stationary phase designed for demanding normal-phase chromatography, adsorption chromatography, and HILIC applications. The unmodified silica surface provides strong polar interactions, enabling efficient separation of polar compounds, isomers, carbohydrates, and structurally related analytes.

The 300 Å pore size ensures excellent accessibility for larger molecules, including peptides, biomolecules, and high-molecular-weight compounds. This wide-pore structure improves mass transfer and reduces steric hindrance, resulting in high efficiency, sharp peak shapes, and reproducible retention behavior. Manufactured from uniform, spherical silica particles, Exsil 300 Si delivers outstanding mechanical stability, consistent packing performance, and long column lifetime. The high surface activity of the silica allows selective interactions via hydrogen bonding, dipole–dipole forces, and adsorption mechanisms, making it a versatile solution for method development and routine analytical separations. Exsil 300 Si is fully compatible with standard normal-phase solvent systems (e.g., hexane, isopropanol mixtures) as well as aqueous-organic mobile phases used in HILIC chromatography.

Exsil 300 Si combines wide-pore accessibility with high-purity bare silica selectivity – delivering reliable, efficient, and reproducible separations for polar and adsorption-driven chromatographic applications.
