Description
Silica gel N UV254 is a chromatography sorbent offered in a bulk 5 kg pack for laboratory separation and UV-assisted detection workflows. This silica gel grade is intended for thin-layer and related chromatographic applications in which visualisation under ultraviolet light forms part of the analytical process. The net content is 5,00 kg, with a gross package weight of 7,85 kg, providing a practical bulk supply for laboratories that prepare numerous plates, columns, or clean-up steps. Listed among chromatography accessories and supplied from manufacturer Macherey-Nagel, it supports routine analytical, preparative, and teaching work that relies on silica-based stationary phases. Safety phrase S 22 applies, so operators should avoid breathing dust during handling and transfer. Produced in Germany, the material suits research, quality-control, and educational settings. The generous 5 kg pack size helps lower reorder frequency on high-throughput chromatography benches while remaining straightforward to store and dispense in line with established laboratory procedures for TLC plate preparation and related separations.

Questions about Silica gel N UV254, 5 kg
What is this article?
Silica gel N UV254, 5 kg is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Macherey-Nagel for laboratory use. It sits in Sorbents, silica gel & ion exchangers, inside SPE & sample preparation, in Chromatography equipment.
Loose sorbent, silica gel and ion-exchange resin are the phases bought in bulk to pack a column or to stir into a solution. Particle size and activity, or the ion-exchange capacity, are the specification. A TLC silica and a flash silica of different particle sizes are not the same separation.
Solid-phase extraction holds a compound on a sorbent while the rest of the sample is washed away, then releases it in a small volume. The sorbent, the bed mass and the solvents are the method. Silica, ion exchangers and polymer phases do different jobs. A flash column is the same idea scaled toward purification rather than trace cleanup. The molecules are on PubChem, named by IUPAC.
Which category should I open next?
