Synthesize of low price stationary phases with permanent groups for reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) has gained
great importance in the past several years. In chromatographic analyses, silica gels are commonly used as a supporting material as
they give high mechanical strength and swelling resistance. Additionally, different particle and pore size availability and low cost
makes these materials one of the most suitable stationary phase. In this work, chemically bonded C8
phase was synthesized by sol-gel
route and instead of toxic silicone alkoxides, non-toxic water glass was chosen as a precursor. Linking process of C8
groups to silica
gel was carried out by trimethoxy(octyl)silane. The end-capping and C8
binding procedure was analyzed by Fourier transform
infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and morphology of C8
particles were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM).
