C2 TLC Plates

Dimethyl-Modified Silica Layer

C2 TLC Plates feature a silanized silica layer with dimethyl modification and a carbon content of 4%. The plates can be used in Normal or Reversed-phase separation modes with purely organic, organic-aqueous, or fully aqueous eluents.

Base Material:

  • Silica Gel 60, specific surface (BET) ~ 500 m2/g, mean pore size 60 Å
  • Specific pore volume 0.75 ml/g, particle size 5-17 µm
  • pH stability 2-10
Glass Backed TLC Plates

Additional Features:

  • Indicator — acid resistant product with a pale blue fluorescence for short-wave UV
  • UV-absorbing substances are dark blue to black spots on a light blue background
  • Wettable with water, can be used in Normal or Reversed Phase modes
  • Order of polarity: Silica > DIOL > NH2 > CN > C2 > C18-50 > C18-W > C18-100

Recommended Applications:

  • Active plant constituents, steroids
