Merck, 1055500001, TLC Aluminium oxide 60 F254, neutral

General description
25 Aluminium sheets 20 x 20 cm
Aluminiumoxide plates are used to analyze basic and neutral compounds at different pH levels. Depending on the pH range in question, professionals can choose between two kinds of aluminum oxide plates. Under aqueous conditions, basic aluminum oxide plates are best for separating basic compounds, while neutral plates are ideal for separating neutral compounds. Available with or without a fluorescence indicator, our TLC aluminum plates handle a wide variety of applications thanks to neutral and basic aluminum oxides with 60 Å and 150 Å pore sizes.
