| Application: | Aluminum oxide has been used as a chromatographic column support for the purification of sn-2 monopalmitin prior to its determination by high performance liquid chromatography-evaporativ It may be used for purification of fish tissue extract followed by liquid−liquid extraction into dichloromethane prior to the analysis for triarylmethane and phenothiazine dyes by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC−MS/MS). It may also be used as a solid support phase for SPE-based analysis of pyrethroid insecticide residues in vegetable oils by gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS). |
| General description: | Brockmann aluminum oxides are suitable for column chromatography and adsorptive filtration. Aluminum oxides are generally used as solid support phases in solid phase extraction (SPE)-based clean-up procedures employed in chromatographic methods. |
| General description: | We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which belong to one of the four categories of greener alternatives. Aluminum oxide serves as a multifunctional additive or coating in lithium-ion batteries, helping stabilize electrode–electrolyte interfaces, suppress side reactions, improve thermal stability, and extend cycle life. By enabling safer, longer-lasting cells, it reduces material waste and energy use across the battery lifecycle. Click here  for more information. |
