Summary A particle size distribution analysis has been completed on three different HPLC column packing materials including silica gel (Si60) and two bonded phases (RP8 and RP18). The stationary phases were subjected to 18 hours stress with 1 N or 3 N KOH and found to have quantitatively different distribution patterns initially, at 13 hours and finally at 18 hours although the average particle diameters for the Si60 and RP8 were the same or higher at 18 hours as initially. Thirteen hoursstress with sodium octanesulfonate, tetrabutylammonium phosphate and ammonium acetate at exaggerated conditions also resulted in distributional changes with the Si60 and RP8 decreasing in average particle diameter when exposed to ammonium acetate and tetrabutylammonium stressing respectively.
