Product Description
Silica Gel HF254 is a high-purity silica gel specially formulated for Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) applications. It combines silica gel with calcium sulfate binder (H type) and a fluorescent indicator (F254) that allows compounds to be visualized under UV light at 254 nm.
This formulation ensures excellent separation efficiency, strong adhesion, and reproducible Rf values, making it an ideal choice for pharmaceutical, chemical, and research laboratories conducting routine and advanced chromatographic analyses.
