Exsil 80 Hexyl

C6 Silica Phase for Intermediate Reversed-Phase HPLC Selectivity

Exsil 80 Hexyl is a silica-based HPLC stationary phase with an 80 Å pore size and a hexyl (C6) bonded surface, designed for intermediate hydrophobic retention in reversed-phase HPLC. Positioned between short-chain phases (C1, C4) and longer alkyl phases (C8, C18), the C6 modification provides balanced retention strength and distinct selectivity for small-molecule separations.

The controlled pore structure and high surface area support high chromatographic efficiency, sharp peak shapes, and reproducible retention behavior. Exsil 80 Hexyl is particularly useful for compounds that elute too quickly on short-chain phases or too strongly on C8 or C18 columns.

Exsil 80 Hexyl delivers controlled intermediate retention, high efficiency, and reliable reproducibility, making it an effective choice for fine-tuned reversed-phase HPLC separations of small molecules.

Key Features:

  • Silica-based HPLC stationary phase with 80 Å pore size

  • Hexyl (C6) bonded phase for intermediate hydrophobic retention

  • Balanced selectivity between C4 and C8 phases

  • High efficiency and reproducible chromatographic performance

  • Optimized for small-molecule reversed-phase HPLC

  • Available particle sizes: 3 µm, 5 µm, 10 µm

Typical Applications:

  • Reversed-phase separation of moderately hydrophobic compounds

  • Pharmaceutical analysis of small molecules and intermediates

  • Method development requiring fine-tuned retention strength

  • Faster HPLC methods compared to C8 or C18

  • Food, environmental, and chemical analysis
