For preparing use of silica gel glass plates (SiO2) as a TLC adsorbent. The plates are Glass or aluminum-backed and you can cut them to size with scissors. Our adsorbents are extremely good when Plates are prepared by chemist by their own hands, which is very easy to prepare in Lab itself with lower economical options.
We offer various particle size ranges as below:



Interactions of the Compound and the Adsorbent

The strength with which an organic compound binds to an adsorbent depends on the strength of the following types of interactions: ion-dipole, dipole-dipole, hydrogen bonding, dipole induced dipole, and van der Waals forces. With silica gel, the dominant interactive forces between the adsorbent and the materials to be separated are of the dipole-dipole type. Highly polar molecules interact fairly strongly with the polar Si—O bonds of these adsorbents and will tend to stick or adsorb onto the fine particles of the adsorbent while weakly polar molecules are held less tightly. Weakly polar molecules thus generally tend to move through the adsorbent more rapidly than the polar species. Roughly, the compounds follow the elution order
