What is fibrillar polymeric monolith technology and how does it differ from traditional polymeric monolithic technology?
Polymeric fibrillar monolith technology creates controlled pore shape and orientation for chromatography, filtration and other extractive media. Fibrillar monoliths are composed of thousands of oriented polymeric microfibrils that are partially fused together. This enables fewer blind and eddy spots than granular, nodular and spherical based packings. Clogging, blinding, shock damage and sample carry-over are minimized by this systemic design difference. Other favorable characteristics of monolithic structures are preserved, such as low back pressure and high analyte mass transfer. In summary, the benefits of traditional polymeric monolithic media are conserved with the added benefits of economy and robustness.
