Description
This developing chamber for thin-layer chromatography (TLC) accommodates a maximum of five plates with dimensions up to 20 × 20 cm, making it suitable for standard analytical and preparative TLC workflows. Designed as a dedicated accessory for thin-layer chromatography, the chamber provides a controlled environment for solvent development of multiple plates in parallel, supporting efficient separation work in research and quality-control laboratories. Supplied as a single unit, it fits routine TLC setups where larger plate formats and higher plate capacity are required. The chamber is intended for use with conventional TLC and HPTLC plates within the stated size limit and helps maintain consistent development conditions during chromatographic runs. Offered from manufacturer MACHEREY-NAGEL, this developing chamber is a practical piece of labware for chromatography benches that regularly process 20 × 20 cm plates. It complements existing TLC accessories and supports reproducible plate development in everyday analytical practice.
This article is part of TLC & HPTLC plates, in TLC.

Questions about Developing chamber f. TLC, max. 5 plates, up to size 20 x 20 cm, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Developing chamber f. TLC, max. 5 plates, up to size 20 x 20 cm, 1 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Macherey-Nagel for laboratory use. It sits in TLC & HPTLC plates, inside TLC, in Chromatography equipment.
A TLC plate is a backing, glass, aluminium or plastic, coated with silica or alumina of a stated thickness. HPTLC uses a finer particle and a thinner layer. Indicator plates fluoresce so a dark spot shows under UV. Plate size and layer thickness are the specification.
Thin-layer chromatography runs a liquid up a plate coated with a sorbent. The compounds move different distances and are seen as spots. HPTLC is the same method with a finer layer. The plate, the solvent mixture and the chamber saturation decide the result. It is the quick look before, or beside, a column method. The substances are on PubChem, named by IUPAC.
