Exsil 80 Nitrile HL

High-Load Cyano Silica Phase for Enhanced Capacity in HPLC

Exsil 80 Nitrile HL is a silica-based HPLC stationary phase with an 80 Å pore size and a high-load nitrile (cyano, CN) bonded surface. The HL (high-load) modification provides an increased ligand density, resulting in enhanced retention capacity and improved robustness for demanding small-molecule separations.

The cyano functionality delivers distinct polar and dipolar interactions and allows operation in both reversed-phase and normal-phase chromatography. Compared to standard CN phases, Exsil 80 Nitrile HL offers higher sample loading, stable retention behavior, and reliable performance in routine analysis and method development.

The controlled pore structure ensures high surface area, supporting sharp peak shapes, high efficiency, and excellent reproducibility.

Exsil 80 Nitrile HL provides enhanced loading capacity, versatile polarity-based selectivity, and reliable performance, making it a robust choice for demanding small-molecule HPLC separations.
