摘要 |
The present invention relates to silica materials and particles having surfaces which define an interior. The interior includes interior silicon atoms at least a portion of which is bonded to a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl moiety. In a preferred aspect of the present invention, the silica material also has surface silicon atoms to which are bonded substituted or unsubstituted alkyl moieties. A capillary tube coated on its inner surface with the silica material of the present invention is also disclosed. The silica materials of the present invention are resistant to degradation at high or low pH and are particularly useful as chromatographic stationary phases, especially for use in open tubular liquid chromatography and open tubular electrochromatography.
