Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

As discussed in the first chapter, Chromatography is a separation technique based on the different affinities of the components in a mixture of two immiscible phases. One phase does not move (stationary phase) and the other moves through it in a definite direction (mobile phase). This chapter discusses the adsorbent or stationary phase used in TLC and the properties of these materials.
