Description

· HPLC Method for Analysis of TFA (Trifluoroacetic Acid) on Primesep B4 Column by SIELC Technologies · Trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) is a strong organic acid with the chemical formula CF₃COOH. · Properties: · Uses: · Precautions:

Trifluoroacetic acid can be retained and analyzed using an Primesep B4 mixed-mode stationary phase column. The analysis employs an isocratic method with a simple mobile phase consisting of water, acetonitrile (MeCN), and ammonium formate as a buffer. Detection is achieved using ELSD
