Exsil Avanti SCX

Strong Cation Exchange Silica for High-Resolution Ion-Exchange HPLC

Exsil Avanti SCX is a high-performance strong cation exchange (SCX) silica stationary phase designed for efficient and reproducible ion-exchange chromatography in HPLC and UHPLC systems. Functionalized with sulfonic acid groups, this phase provides stable and powerful electrostatic interactions for the retention of positively charged analytes across a broad pH range.

The permanently charged sulfonic acid functionality ensures consistent cation-exchange capacity, making Exsil Avanti SCX ideal for the separation of amines, basic pharmaceuticals, peptides, alkaloids, and other cationic compounds. Its optimized surface chemistry minimizes unwanted secondary interactions, delivering sharp peak symmetry and predictable retention behavior. Built on the advanced Exsil Avanti high-purity spherical silica platform, the phase offers excellent mechanical strength, uniform particle morphology, and long column lifetime. It performs reliably under aqueous buffer conditions and supports gradient elution using salt concentration or pH adjustment — providing flexibility for analytical, preparative, and method development applications.

Exsil Avanti SCX combines strong, stable cation-exchange chemistry with high-efficiency silica technology — delivering precise, reproducible, and high-resolution ion-exchange separations for modern analytical laboratories.
