Basics
- A form of Chromatography using a “mobile phase” which spreads the “stationary phase” (the sample) over a piece of material (either a “TLC Plate” or (TLC) Paper)
- Useful not just for research, but also for Quality Control of materials
- Simple Setups can be VERY accessible ( Printer Paper , a Glass Jar, a Dropper, and a Solvent)
- High End Setups can be fully automated and produce Quantitative Data
