Launch of three new FluoroSep™ HPLC Packing Materials for Difficult Separations

ES Industries is launching three new FluoroSep™ HPLC packing materials, available in either bulk or packed columns, the new standard for difficult separations and purifications.

“Having listened to the concerns of separation scientists with difficult separations, we wanted to create a solution that was selective, rugged, and reproducible for separations that are not obtained easily using traditional C8 and C18 phases,” said David Kohler, President. “ES Industries and FluoroSep are well known and respected chromatography brands, and we felt the time was right to extend our offering to provide our customers with a complete selectivity palette for HPLC Separations.”

“By design, FluoroSep media, based upon ultra-high purity metal free silica and proprietary polymers and silanes, are proven to provide alternative and complementary separations for many analytes. Fluorinated phases can provide different elution orders, leading to enhanced selectivity for difficult-toseparate compounds.“ noted Vice President and Technical Director Dr. Matthew Przybyciel. “Fluorinated phases can aid in identification, proof of purity, and quantitation and offer chromatographers the possibility to use simpler mobile phases avoiding extreme pH conditions and complex mobile-phase preparations.”

FluoroSep™ is offered in bulk with particle sizes from 1.8 to 20 micron and in packed columns from capillary to preparative. The three new FluoroSep phases are: FluoroSep HILIC, a Fluorinated Diol Phase with unique retention and separation of highly polar halogenated compounds; FluoroSep RP-XP, a Fluorophenyl phase with a perfluoroalkyl chain attached for the separation and retention of alkyl and aromatic halogenated compounds including isomers; FluoroSep RP-XF, an Alkyl perfluorinated phase with perfluorinated end-capping designed for the separation of halogenated/non-halogenated molecules.
