Bioprocessing – Protein Production and Purification on an Industrial Scale (large volumes!) (19:52) There is a small segment in the middle (about 4:44) that discusses the hydrophillic/hydrophobic nature of the column beads, proteins and salt washes.  Other parts also discuss separation by charge and size using different types of columns.
