Silica Gel TLC Plates, High Definition (HD) Layer

Silica Gel TLC plates, high-definition (Silica HD TLC plates), are highly recommended for most applications in thin layer chromatography. These plates feature an abrasion-resistant surface, outstanding visualization performance, and high luminosity for distinct identification and separated compounds.

Advantages of Silica HD TLC Plates:

  • Outstanding ability to accept visualization reagents and increased abrasion resistance due to our optimized binder system
  • Good wettability for precise colorization results, even with 100% aqueous detection reagents
  • Excellent separation efficiency with the HD’s optimized particle size distribution
  • High suitability for trace analyses resulting from a UV indicator with increased brilliance and the low-noise background of the adsorbent layer
  • Available as glass plates with or without fluorescent indicator
Silica Gel HD TLC Plates

Silica gel TLC plates are thin layer chromatography plates that are used for the separation and analysis of compounds. They are made from silica gel, a highly porous material that is capable of adsorbing and separating a wide range of compounds. The plates are typically coated with a thin layer of silica gel and then dried to create a solid surface that can be used for chromatography.

One of the main advantages of silica gel TLC plates is their high resolving power. Because of the fine pore structure of the silica gel, these plates are able to separate compounds with very similar chemical properties. This makes them ideal for use in applications such as the analysis of complex mixtures or the identification of unknown compounds.

Silica gel TLC plates are also relatively inexpensive and easy to use. They can be prepared in-house and are compatible with a wide range of solvent systems. Additionally, the visual analysis of the separated compounds can be done by using various reagents, such as iodine or anisaldehyde, which can provide a characteristic color for each compound. This makes silica gel TLC plates a popular choice for both research and industrial applications.
