The Thermo Scientific HPLC system is applied for the analysis of cationic surfactants. The separation is performed on a Thermo Scientific Acclaim Surfactant Plus, with charged aerosol detection. The Acclaim Surfactant Plus column is designed specifically for surfactant analysis. It provides ideal selectivity for separating different surfactant types with a single injection, low column bleed, excellent stability, and shorter analysis time. In particular, it is designed to give excellent peak shapes for cationic surfactants.
The Thermo Scientific UltiMate 3000 RSLC system is applied for the analysis of cationic, nonionic, amphoteric and anionic surfactants. The separation is performed using a Thermo Scientific Acclaim Surfactant Plus column, with charged aerosol detection. The Thermo Scientific Acclaim Surfactant Plus column, based on novel mixed mode chromatography technology and advanced surface chemistry, provides both reversed-phase and anion-exchange retention mechanisms.
