Product Description
Silica gel without binder is a high-purity, fine-particle adsorbent specifically designed for thin-layer chromatography (TLC). Unlike conventional silica gel, this variant lacks a binder, ensuring minimal interference with sample components and delivering cleaner, more accurate separations. Its uniform particle size and high surface area make it ideal for resolving complex mixtures in research and educational labs.
Whether you’re analyzing organic compounds, pharmaceuticals, or natural products, this TLC-grade silica gel provides consistent performance. The absence of a binder reduces background noise, improving spot resolution and sensitivity. It’s a trusted choice for students, researchers, and educators who demand precision in their chromatographic work.
At eqipped, we source this silica gel from CDH, a reputable supplier known for lab-grade chemicals. Each batch undergoes rigorous quality checks to ensure it meets the standards required for reliable TLC results. The 500 gm pack size is perfect for frequent use in academic and small-scale research settings.

FAQs
What is the difference between silica gel with and without binder?
Silica gel without binder lacks additives like calcium sulfate, which can interfere with sample components. This makes it ideal for high-sensitivity TLC applications where purity is critical.
Can I use this silica gel for column chromatography?
While it’s optimized for TLC, it can be used for flash chromatography in a pinch. However, for column applications, a coarser particle size is generally preferred for better flow rates.
How should I store silica gel for TLC?
Store it in an airtight container with a desiccant to prevent moisture absorption. Exposure to humidity can degrade its performance over time.
What is the typical particle size of this silica gel?
This TLC-grade silica gel has a fine particle size, usually in the range of 5–20 microns, ensuring sharp separations on TLC plates.
Is this silica gel suitable for preparative TLC?
Yes, its high purity and fine particle size make it suitable for both analytical and preparative TLC, though thicker layers may be needed for larger sample loads.
