Catalog Number - 68040-15P

Cogent NP Amino is a versatile normal phase and HILIC stationary phase designed for retention of highly polar compounds that are often difficult to retain using conventional reversed-phase columns. Manufactured on high-purity silica with a propyl amino bonded phase, it provides excellent selectivity for carbohydrates, sugars, organic acids, and other polar analytes. This stationary phase is commonly used as an alternative for USP L8 methods and is suitable for both Normal Phase and HILIC separations.

68040-15P is an analytical HPLC column packed with 10 µm NP Amino particles featuring a 100 Å pore size in a 4.6 mm ID x 150 mm format. The 150 mm length provides enhanced resolution and peak capacity compared to shorter columns, making it well suited for more demanding separations. The 10 µm particle size supports higher flow rates and lower operating backpressure compared with smaller particles. Typical operating flow rates are approximately 1.0–2.0 mL/min depending on analyte properties, mobile phase composition, and instrument configuration.

This column is particularly effective for sugars, carbohydrates, negatively charged compounds, organic acids, carboxylic acid-containing compounds, and other highly polar molecules. As with all amino phases, this column is suitable for both Normal Phase and HILIC applications when enhanced retention of polar analytes is required.
