Catalog Number - 82360-25P-4

Cogent NP Diol™ HPLC Columns are designed for the separation of hydrophilic and polar compounds using Normal Phase and HILIC chromatography modes. Manufactured using high-purity 100Å silica bonded with a short hydrocarbon ligand containing a terminal diol functional group, this stationary phase is not end capped and provides versatile selectivity for compounds that may be difficult to retain using conventional reversed-phase chromatography. NP Diol™ is widely used as an alternative for USP L20 methods and for developing robust analytical methods requiring enhanced retention of polar analytes.

82360-25P-4 is packed with 3 µm NP Diol™ particles in a 4.0 mm ID x 250 mm analytical format. The extended 250 mm column length provides maximum retention, chromatographic resolution, and peak capacity for demanding analytical separations. The 3 µm particle size delivers higher efficiency and sharper peak shapes than comparable 5 µm columns, although increased operating pressure should be expected. The 4.0 mm internal diameter provides a specialized analytical format for methods requiring this specific column geometry.

The NP Diol™ stationary phase is commonly selected for hydrophilic and polar compounds analyzed by HILIC and Normal Phase chromatography. It is frequently used as a replacement for unmodified silica columns because it offers improved robustness and broader solvent compatibility while maintaining useful selectivity for polar analytes. The 250 mm length makes this format particularly well suited for complex samples, closely related compounds, and analytical methods requiring the highest resolving power.
