Abstract:
Evaluation of the chromatographic properties of covalently bonded hyperbranched stationary phase based on poly(styrene-divinylbenzene) (PS-DVB) and containing zwitterionic fragments in the structure of functional layer was conducted in suppressed ion chromatography (IC), reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP HPLC), and hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) modes. Besides the possibility of resolving 20 inorganic anions and organic acids using KOH eluent in suppressed IC, prepared resin provided the separation of alkylbenzenes in RP HPLC, water-soluble vitamins, amino acids, and sugars in HILIC mode. Trends in the retention of hydrophobic and polar analytes on the prepared stationary phase indicated the dominating effect of analyte nature on the retention mechanism and proved satisfactory hydrophilization of PS-DVB surface with hyperbranched functional layer for retaining polar compounds. The obtained results revealed good prospects of using hydrophobic PS-DVB substrate for preparing stationary phases for mixed-mode chromatography.

Chromatography: Introduction
The phase in which the compounds linger or on which the compounds adsorb is called the stationary phase, whereas the mobile phase is the solvent that carries the solutes to be analyzed. In traditional column chromatography, the mixture flows through the stationary phase, and the compounds partition between the stationary and mobile phases...
