  • Monolithic sorbents having a metal cladding
    Patent number: 11268938
    Abstract: The invention relates to monolithic sorbents which are clad with tubes made of metal. The metal cladding can be applied directly to the monolithic sorbents by cold forming. This enables very mechanically stable cladding of the monolithic sorbents with minimal dead space.

  • Process for the production of monolithic mouldings
    Patent number: 7666336
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing monolithic molded elements e.g. as sorbents for chromatographic columns or capillary vessels. The aim of the invention is for said molded elements to be able to remain directly in the gel mold thereof following the production process. Said aim is achieved by the inventive method, according to which the surface of the gel mold is activated by etching, increasing the surface, or chemically modifying the surface before the gelling mold is filled with the monomer sol.

  • Open Tubular Capillaries Having a Connecting Layer
    Publication number: 20070267348
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing open tubular capillaries containing monolithic sorbents and to said capillaries. The inventive capillaries are characterised by a connection layer between the capillary wall and the sorbent, said layer ensuring a particularly good adhesion of the sorbent to the capillary wall.
