Pillar array columns: are there other possible separation modes than reversed-phase?

I am wondering if it is possible to use pillar array columns for separations other than in the reversed-phase mode? I have found a paper explaining the difficulty of coating the pillar surface...

What are the main (fundamental) limitations impeding the development of column materials in UHPLC like IEX, SEC etc.?

UHPLC is commercialized since 2004, but there are still far less columns available with sub-2 micron technology than there are for HPLC columns. Are there limitations regarding the development of...

Why are there not many ion-exchange columns with sub-2 particles?

I'm guessing that it is because conventional IEX uses non-porous particles (NPP), and with UHPLC sub-2 particles the focus is to decrease mass-transfer kinetics, which can not be improved much...

Waters 2707 HPLC autosampler problem?

I am using a 2707 waters HPLC device. When I try to inject a sample, it says missing plate or rack. I changed the needle and calibrated its position but I still get the same problem. I even get...

Why almost every element would be metallized in sufficiently high pressure and low temperature?

(This statement is from wikipedia, BTW). What is so special about metallic bond that is limiting high-P low-T state of a matter (as long as individual atoms exist, not white dwarf of neutron star...

Discrete Phase model (DPM) particle break-up has particle size limits during particle tracking?

Hello, I am currently working on simulating water droplet partciles in a closed room. When I use uniform particles, without "particle break-up", I can carry out the simulation without any problem....
