Description
Thin-layer chromatography plates (TLC) 5 x 10 cm with F254 indicator on aluminium are silica gel plates designed for classical TLC separations. The adsorbent is specified with a particle size of 5–17 µm, pore size of 60 Å, specific pore volume of 0,75 ml/g, and specific surface area of 500 m²/g. Aluminium plates carry a layer thickness of 0,15–0,20 mm and use sodium salts of organic acids as binder; glass counterparts in the range use 0,20–0,25 mm layers with polyacrylates and/or other binders. This article is the aluminium F254 version in the 5 x 10 cm size, packed as 80 pieces. The format offers a larger development path than mini-plates while remaining economical on solvent and chamber space. Net weight is 0,250 kg. Available from manufacturer Labbox in the METRIA assortment, these plates fit routine qualitative chromatography, impurity checks, and educational demonstrations. F254 fluorescence indication supports spot visualisation under UV after development. Consistent pore volume and surface-area data help maintain comparable Rf behaviour within the stated silica specification. The 80-piece pack suits laboratories that need a mid-size aluminium TLC stock without over-ordering bulk cartons.
This article is part of TLC & HPTLC plates, in TLC.

Questions about Thin layer chrom. (TLC) plates 5x10cm, F254, Aluminium, 80 pcs
What is this article?
Thin layer chrom. (TLC) plates 5x10cm, F254, Aluminium, 80 pcs is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox 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.
