Clean-Up® Florisil® PR

This sorbent is composed of a silica backbone bonded with carbon chains containing polar functional groups. Groups which will possess such polarity include amines, hydroxyls and carbonyls. Compounds are retained on hydrophilic sorbents through polar interactions including hydrogen bonding, pi-pi or dipole-dipole interaction. These types of interactions occur when a distribution of electrons between individual atoms in functional groups is unequal, causing negative and positive polarity. Compounds typically extracted on a hydrophilic column include analytes which have polar groups, including amines, hydroxyls and carbonyls. Elution is performed by strong polar solvents.
