Description

General description

Standardized sorbents ensure reliable results every time. Our broad spectrum meets all kinds of needs. In TLC, silica gel 60 sorbent is considered the most versatile. Our assortment of silica gel 60 features different grades with particle sizes ranging from 5-40 µm: silica with a gypsum binder, silica with no foreign binder, and silica gel with a fluorescence indicator. We also offer high-quality aluminum oxide, cellulose microcrystalline, and kieselgur (also known as diatomaceous earth).

Application

• Exploring the versatility of sulfur-containing heterocyclic metal complexes: Application in medical and prospects of visible-light-driven photocatalysis: Investigates the medical and environmental applications of sulfur-containing metal complexes, showing potential in light-driven processes and therapeutic areas (Daisylet et al., 2024).


• PAHs removal by soil washing with thiacalix[4]arene tetrasulfonate: Describes the use of sulfur-based compounds in environmental cleanup processes, particularly for the removal of persistent organic pollutants in soil (Xing et al., 2024).
