Separation of Various Inorganic and Organic Anions
The Dionex IonPac AS31 column provides excellent separation of a variety of environmental anions including
inorganic anions, oxyhalides, oxyanions, and organic acids. When developing a method, keep in mind that if there is
a big difference in the hydrophobicity and valencies of the two analytes, variation in column capacities will have
significant effect on the peak resolution.
