Aluminium Oxide Chromatography

Aluminum Oxide is one of the strong adsorbent media which is highly preferred in column chromatography techniques. Active aluminum oxide is a typical amphoteric in nature (acting either as a base or as well as being configured as neutral provides the best results for a chromatographer to separate a multitude of compounds over and above silica gels. Alumina can act as a weak ion exchanger demonstrating anionic or cationic properties, while additionally acting as an adsorbent. Alumina, due to its unique biological characteristics, is a special adsorbent for use in separation sciences. These active media are available in two different grades as per their application.

• Basic
• Neutral

This active media is a white to off white fine particles, which are highly porous in nature. Available grades are very effectively sensitive to aromatic compounds.

Basic & Neutral alumina Oxide is used to do the separation of sensitive material.
