Kinetex Core-Shell Biphenyl HPLC Columns
Kinetex core-shell biphenyl HPLC columns offer increased separation power for polar and non-polar analytes

Kinetex Core-Shell Biphenyl HPLC Columns

Enhanced Polar and Aromatic Selectivity

Kinetex Biphenyl is a high-efficiency core-shell product capable of adding extra separation power to your analysis of non-polar and polar compounds. Take advantage of multiple selectivity interaction mechanisms such as hydrophobic, pi-pi, and dipole-dipole to improve tough separations.

  • Compatible with All Analytical HPLC/UHPLC Systems*
  • Orthogonal Selectivity to C18 Phase
  • 100 % Aqueous Mobile Phases Stable
  • USP: L11

*Kinetex analytical columns are compatible with all LC system with standard LC column end-fittings threaded in 10-32. Please contact us at Phenomenex.com/chat for any questions and information about fitting compatibility and any other column internal diameters.

Particle Size
1.7, 2.6, 5
Recommended Use
100 % aqueous stable reversed phase chemistry with hydrophobic, aromatic, and enhanced polar selectivity

Think high performance‚ enhanced retention‚ and the ability to go where a traditional C18 can’t. The Kinetex Biphenyl offers the high performance benefits of a core-shell particle with a unique stationary phase capable of becoming the go-to selectivity for reversed phase method development. Use Kinetex Biphenyl columns to get enhanced retention‚ higher sensitivity‚ and overall better results;
especially for aromatic compounds.

Aromatic Selectivity

Compounds with aromatic ring structures offer a specific type of selectivity associated with pi-pi bond interaction. The compound’s aromaticity provides pi electrons that have the potential to interact with pi bonds, which can be found on phenyl based stationary phases. This provides a unique, orthogonal selectivity compared to a traditional C18 phase.

Increased Separation of Aromatic Compounds
Using a Biphenyl Phase

The elution order of analytes can change depending upon the predominate selectivity characteristics of a HPLC or UHPLC column and the utilized mobile phase. Therefore, by altering the stationary phase or mobile phase conditions, we can observe a unique elution order and extend retention of more polar analytes.
