[nanoPost] Polymer with a highly porous honeycomb of regularly curved chiral channels

Company USA

- Conventional chiral separation media attach a chiral compound to an inert backbone and rely mainly on steric and ionic factors for selectivity.

- The company has developed unique stationary phases based on physical mechanisms rather than chemical interactions. Nanostructured channels are engineered into these materials during manufacture to provide unusual chiral properties.

- Selectivity results from differential interaction of each enantiomer with the internal contours of these channels. Meanwhile, the surface can be functionalized with different chemistries to be compatible with diverse analyte classes without impairing the chiral selectivity.

- These properties have allowed the company to develop a suite of chiral separations products that offer new and different approaches to the challenges of chiral chromatography.
