The polyester foil is 0,2 mm thick and supplied in the compact 4 × 8 cm format with a silica gel G layer, ready for immediate use without manual plate preparation. Small-format ready-to-use foils support efficient sample application, development and detection in analytical, teaching and screening laboratories. Each pack contains 50 pieces and weighs 0,080 kg, offering a practical supply for high-throughput or multi-sample TLC work. POLYGRAM® SIL G foils from manufacturer MACHEREY-NAGEL combine a flexible polyester backing with the SIL G layer designation for reliable qualitative separations. The polyester support is suited to workflows that benefit from a plastic foil base rather than glass or aluminium. Within the TLC plates category of chromatography labware, this 4 × 8 cm medium is used for reaction monitoring, purity checks and rapid fraction assessment where compact ready-to-use polyester foils are required.

Questions about TLC-ready-to-use foil POLYGRAM® SIL G, 4x8 cm, polyester foil, 0.2 mm
What is this article?
TLC-ready-to-use foil POLYGRAM® SIL G, 4x8 cm, polyester foil, 0.2 mm 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.
