ACE - Model HILIC-B - Robust HPLC and UHPLC Column with Basic Character
From ACE HILIC
The ACE HILIC-B column is a bonded proprietary basic character phase with an ionisable positive surface charge depending upon mobile phase pH. The HILIC-B stationary phase is based upon the ultra-pure ACE silica platform.
Products Details
- Highly consistent bonded phase providing excellent batch to batch reproducibility
- Available in high performing HPLC (3um and 5um) and UHPLC (1.7um) particle sizes
- Wide variety of column lengths and internal diameters available
What is HILIC?
- Hydrophilic Interaction Liquid Chromatography (HILIC) was first described by Alpert*
- HILIC is ideal for the separation and retention of polar species including polar neutral and polar ionised analytes
- HILIC separations typically include a polar stationary phase with high organic solvent containing mobile phases
- Mechanistically HILIC is complex (see Fig) and provides multiple modes of interaction between the analyte, stationary phase, eluent and water enriched layer at the stationary phase particle-eluent interface.

When should you Consider HILIC?
- HILIC provides the retention and separation of hydrophilic or polar to very polar analytes not well retained in RPLC
- Hydrophilic or polar to very polar analytes have log P values (measure of lipophilicity) of around zero or less (Fig 2A)
- Generally, polar analytes are suitable for HILIC if they elute before caffeine in gradient RPLC (Fig 2B)
