Chromosorb® P (used to prepare Silcoport® P)
Chromosorb® P support is manufactured from hard firebrick, making it a rugged material. This support is available acid washed (AW), non-acid washed (NAW), and traditional dimethyldichlorosilane (DMDCS) treated. Chromosorb® P support can hold up to 30 weight% of liquid stationary phase, making it the highest loading support available.
Chromosorb® W (used to prepare Silcoport® W and Silcoport® BW)
Chromosorb® W support is a flux-calcinated diatomite. This solid support is very fragile but offers the highest inertness of all diatomaceous earth supports. It can be prepared with up to 25 weight% of liquid stationary phase. Chromosorb® W support is available in AW, NAW, and DMDCS, or treated with Restek’s proprietary (Silcoport®) deactivation. Chromosorb® W-HP is an acid washed, silanized version of Chromosorb® W.
Chromosorb® G
Chromosorb® G support is the hardest support available and has the lowest surface area of all the diatomaceous earth supports. Chromosorb® G support is available as AW, NAW, and DMDCS-treated. It can hold up to 10 weight% of liquid stationary phase.
Chromosorb® T
Chromosorb® T support is made from Teflon® and is an extremely inert solid support.
