Abstract

A systematical measure of the polarity scale of the Chinese porous polymer beads of this series of stationary phase has been carried out, including the McReynolds constant at 120 degrees C by using squalane as non-polar stationary phase and the relative constant to GDX-103 at 180 degrees C. Based on the above work, two kinds stationary phases GDX-101 and GDX-103 were selected, on which the changing regularity of the relationship between retention index and temperature of the five "probes" of stationary polarity determination, including benzene, butanol, 1-nitropropane, 2-pentanone and pyridine were investigated. At the same time, the changing regularity with temperature of the relative McReynolds constant delta I of GDX-101 to GDX-103 was studied. It is found that Ip-theta c curve and delta I-theta c curve all showed a turning point at the temperature of 180 degrees C and that there was a maximum value of delta I at the temperature of 180 degrees C. So we think that the retention mechanism of this kind of stationary phase changed at 180 degrees C.
