Ion Exchange and Size Exclusion Columns

Typical thin-layer separations are performed on a glass plate that is coated with a thin and adherent layer of finely divided particles this layer constitutes the stationary phase. The particles are similar to those described in the discussion of adsorption, normal- and reversed-phase partition, ion-exchange, and size-exclusion column chromatography. Mobile phases are also similar to those employed in high-performance liquid chromatography.
