Q

Problems with OH groups on diol modified silica?

A

Not all OH groups or silanol groups will react due to steric reasons so will have remaining OH groups which is annoying because they give secondary interactions analytes behave in different ways to what is expected, end capping can be used to stop this

How to get chemical modified silica?

A

Reaction with mono or dichlorosilane - subsequent treatment with trimenthylchlorosilane may reduce the number of silanol groups that remain unreacted for steric reasons end capping (a simple reaction to modify the silica surface and block functional groups, make sure polar reactant groups on surface of silica are neutralised by reactions of agents)

Q

What is needed in ion exchange?

A

Need charge on analytes and ion exchange, opposite charges, if basic has a positive charge so sorbent will have negative charge (although negative charge will still be called cationic exchanger) cation exchange will have negatively charged surface, anion exchanger will have positively charge surface
