Nano-Adamant unmodified nano silica layers for HPTLC
Support materials for TLC ready-to-use layers

Glass plates: glass, ~ 1.3mm thick, high requirements for weight, packaging and storage, ideal torsional strength, high temperature stability, susceptible to breakage, can not be cut with scissors, high resistance against solvents, mineral acids and conc. ammonia, suitability for aqueous detection reagents depends on the phase

POLYGRAM®: polyester, ~ 0.2mm thick, low requirements for weight, packaging and storage, low torsional strength, max. 185°C temperature stability, not susceptible to breakage, can be cut with scissors, high resistance against solvents, mineral acids and conc. ammonia, very suitable for aqueous detection reagents

ALUGRAM®: aluminium, ~ 0.15mm thick, low requirements for weight, packaging and storage, relatively high torsional strength, high temperature stability, not susceptible to breakage, can be cut with scissors, high resistance against solvents, low resistance against mineral acids and conc. ammonia, limited suitability for aqueous detection reagents
Glass plates

nano silica 60, specific surface (BET) ~ 500m2/g, mean pore size 60Å, specific pore volume 0.75ml/g,
particle size 2 to 10 µm
outstanding hardness and abrasion resistance due to an optimized binder system increased separation efficiency due to an optimized particle size distribution high suitability for trace analyses resulting from a UV indicator with increased brilliance and a low-noise background of the layer narrow fractionation of the silica particles allows theoretical plate heights, which are one order of magnitude smaller than on standard silica layers with the advantage of sharper separations, shorter developing times, shorter migration distances, lower amount of samples, and increased detection sensitivity with equal selectivity.

Available as glass plates with or without fluorescent indicator (UV 254).
