Abstract

AbstractA series of hyperbranched poly(3‐methyl‐3‐hydroxymethyloxetane)s with different degree of branching were synthesized using BF3·OEt2 as initiator and coated on the inner surface of the fused‐silica capillaries. In the pH range of 3–9, the coated capillaries reduced electro‐osmotic flow by about four times lower than the bare fused‐silica capillary. The coated capillaries also displayed good resistance to adsorption of cationic proteins, providing clean separations of a mixture of Lysozyme, Cytochrome c, and Ribonuclease A around pH 3–6 in phosphate buffer. The separation efficiency in terms of peak shape was excellent compared with bare fuse‐silica capillary. The separation efficiency of hyperbranched poly(3‐methyl‐3‐hydroxymethyloxetane) with degree of branching of 0.43‐coated capillary column for Lysozyme reached 106 plates/m with a resolution of 7.1, and the coated capillary column had good migration time reproducibility. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
