Nickel Contamination in Hydrogenation Products

Primesep 100 allows the quantitation of nickel cation in a hydrogenation product. Nickel is retained by cation exchange and the hydrogenation product is retained by hydrophobic, reversed-phase mechanisms. Adding an ELSD detector to the system allows detection of nickel which was not possible with UV alone. The separation uses a mobile phase mixture of water, acetonitrile (MeCN, ACN) and trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) with evaporative light scattering detection (ELSD) and UV detection.

Application Column

Primesep 100

The Primesep family of mixed-mode columns offers a wide variety of stationary phases, boasting unprecedented selectivity in the separation of a broad array of chemical compounds across multiple applications. Corresponding Primesep guard columns, available with all stationary phases, do not require holders. SIELC provides a method development service available to all customers.
