Silica gel is a highly functional and popular adsorbent material widely used in column chromatography, a separation technique employed across various industries, including pharmaceuticals, biotechnology. Sorbchem India offers high-quality silica gel specifically designed for column chromatography applications, ensuring superior performance and consistent results.
Silica gel is a porous, amorphous form of silicon dioxide or SiO2 that is useful for the isolation and purification of various compounds in the column chromatography process. It has a large surface area, evenly sized pores, and doesn't react easily to other chemicals and solvents, making it good for separating and purifying many different substances and compounds.
Properties of Silica Gel for Column Chromatography
Sorbchem's silica gel features a high surface area, uniform pore size distribution, low trace elements, and batch-to-batch consistency. Its controlled pH and humidity levels ensure optimal performance, while tight particle structure minimizes fines, making it ideal for efficient separation and purification of compounds.
Uses and Applications
Silica gel is widely used in various industries and applications for its unique characteristics and properties. Since it has a high surface area, it can be applied to the separation of various compounds from complex mixtures.
It finds its application in the pharmaceutical industry for purifying APIs, in biotechnology for biomolecule purification in cosmetics and nutraceutical, herbal extract and in research labs for compound characterization and isolation. It is a crucial adsorbent material across various industries and applications. Sorbchem India provides silica gel, with mesh sizes ranging from 30- 800 Mesh, to meet various needs.
