Chemically modified polymeric resins for separation of cations, organic acids, and small polar molecules by high performance liquid chromatography
Simple organic reactions are used to chemically modify macroporous polystyrene-divinylbenzene resins. Cation separations are studied on weak-acid resins that are easily synthesized and carry the exchange group on the free aromatic portion of the repeating styrene unit of the resin or on a short spac...
