Phenomenex Luna SCX HPLC Columns

The Luna SCX is a high performance silica phase with a benzene sulfonic acid bonded phase used for Strong Cation Exchange (SCX) chromatography.

Key Features of the SCX Column:

• Extensive line of rugged particle sizes.
• Easy method scalability from HPLC to preparative and bulk purification LC
• Ultra-pure, metal-free silica (99.99% purity)

Phenomenex: Luna SCX HPLC Column

• Carbon Load: 0.55 % Sulfur Load, null %
• Surface Area (m²/g): 400
• Particle Size: 5, 10
• Recommended Use: Strong cation exchange for positively charged compounds

Long Column Lifetimes and Excellent Performance

Ultra-pure, metal-free silica (99.99% purity) is the backbone of all Luna material. The resulting high quality particles have a surface smoothness, pore structure, and pore consistency to ensure a more uniform particle shape and greater reproducibility.

Develop Robust Methods

Luna SCX columns provide excellent resolution and peak shape of basic‚ cationic compounds. Luna SCX columns contain a benzene sulfonic acid ligand providing ion-exchange‚ reversed phase‚ and aromatic interactions.

Common Applications:

• Cough and cold compounds, Raclopride, Sodium Acetate, Erythromycins
