General description

It is a macro reticular polystyrene based ion exchange resin with strongly acidic sulfonic group. It serves as an excellent source of strong acid. It can also be used several times. Amberlyst 15 is a heat sensitive macro-porous sulfonic ion exchange acid resin which could be used as a catalyst.

Application

Amberlite™ 15 may be used as column packing material for HPLC analysis. Amberlite™ 15 hydrogen form may be used in separation media for TLC, paper and LPL chromatography.
Strongly acidic cation exchange resin used as a heterogeneous acid catalysis; suitable for non-aqueous catalysis.

GC Analysis of Free Fatty Acids in Parmesan Cheese using Nukol™ after SPME using 65 μm Carbowax/DVB Fiber

In this study, SPME was used for the analysis of free fatty acids in Parmesan cheese using a 65 μm Carbowax/divinylbenzene (DVB) SPME fiber. Headspace extraction of the cheese sample was conducted at 65 °C for 15 minutes and analyzed by GC with FID detection. SPME is ideal for analyzing the volatiles associated with solid food samples. The phase chemistry of the Nukol GC column provides excellent peak shape of acidic compounds.
