Small Particle-size Adsorbents

Synthetic Resins of Small Particle-size for Chromatographical Separation

It is well known that smaller size resins are required to obtain higher purity and better recovery in chromatographic separation of pharmaceuticals. Mitsubishi Chemical offers several types of synthetic adsorbent grades in very useful particle size distributions for industrial scale chromatography.

Mitsubishi chemical also offers analytical HPLC packing media MCI GEL™ which has same chemical and physical structure as these grades. Industrial scaling up of separation process is easily attained by using our product line up.

Aromatic Type DIAION™ HP20SS, SEPABEADS™ SP20SS

HP20SS and SP20SS are directly polymerized, small particle size version of HP20. The wide pore polymer matrix provides excellent kinetics and capacity for small biomolecules at both preparative and process scale. They offer nice balance of pressure flow characteristics and true chromatographic fractionation and have also been successfully applied in simulated moving bed (SMB) applications for a variety of small biomolecules. They often compete with bonded silica supports for preparative and industrial applications.

Modified Aromatic Type SEPABEADS™ SP207SS

SP207SS is a small size version of modified aromatic type SEPABEADS™ SP207. It is applied to reversed phase chromatography. The brominated polymeric matrix provides unique selectivity, full pH operating range and long operating life versus conventional bonded silica packing materials used in preparative and industrial applications.
