Separation of Simple Amines and Ammonia

Primesep A separates ammonia and simple amines (butylamine, diethylamine, ethylamine, methylamine and morpholine) by cation exchange and reversed phase. Primesep A has an embedded strong anionic functional group which helps retain cations by polar and ion-exchange mechanisms. Excellent peak shape results with a mass spec compatible mobile phase of water, acetonitrile (MeCN, ACN) and trifluoracetic acid (TFA) with evaporative light scattering detection (ELSD).

Application Column

Primesep A

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.
