Product Description
Silica Gel H is a premium-grade silica gel specifically developed for Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) applications. It consists of pure silica gel with calcium sulfate binder (H type) but without a fluorescent indicator, making it ideal for general TLC analysis and applications that do not require UV detection.
Widely used in pharmaceutical, chemical, and academic laboratories, Silica Gel H provides excellent adsorption capacity, sharp separations, and consistent Rf values — ensuring reliable and reproducible chromatographic results.
