Abstract
Surface derivatization of poly(p-phenylene terephthalamide) (PPTA) fibers was studied to prepare novel stationary phases in liquid chromatography (LC). As one type of surface derivatization of synthetic fibers, alkyl or perfluoroalkyl chains as functional groups were introduced to the surfaces of PPTA fibers. When each functionalized fiber-packed column was used for LC, increases in retention power with respect to a variety of compounds were ascertained in comparison with that prepared by an untreated-fiber as the stationary phase. Furthermore, it was indicated that the perfluoroalkyl group introduced fibrous stationary phase showed a specific retention behavior with respect to halogenated benzenes. These results demonstrated that the derivatization of the surfaces of PPTA fibers was successfully carried out. Selectivity differences between the modified-fiber packed columns were also confirmed through the use of some sample probes.
