Chromatographic Paper
Product Code : SCL-CL-11609
Chromatographic Paper (SKU SCL-CL-11609) is white, rectangular chromatography paper cut to 110 x 140 mm for paper chromatography in teaching laboratories. Students spot a mixture near one edge, stand the sheet in a solvent and watch the components separate as coloured bands. Science Lab Supplies, working from Ambala, India, offers the paper to schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
Each sheet is a white rectangle of 110 x 140 mm. The white surface makes separated dye or pigment spots easy to see, and the rectangular format allows a baseline, several sample spots and room for the solvent front to travel before the sheet is dried and measured.

Applications and Experiments for Chromatographic Paper
Paper chromatography separates the coloured components of a mixture by how far each travels with the solvent. The sheets fit NCERT Class 9 separation of mixtures, CBSE Class 12 practicals on leaf and flower pigments with Rf values, and B.Sc. separation techniques.
- NCERT Class 9 science: separating the dyes in black ink.
- CBSE Class 12 chemistry practical: separating pigments from leaf and flower extracts and calculating Rf values.
- Class 11 chemistry: chromatography as a method of purification in organic chemistry.
- B.Sc. practicals and school projects: comparing food colours or plant extracts.
Mark the baseline in pencil, keep spots above the solvent level, and run the sheet in a covered vessel so the solvent front rises evenly.
Standard Scope of Supply
Chromatographic Paper is supplied as white rectangular sheets of 110 x 140 mm, as described above. The number of sheets per pack is confirmed on the quotation, and solvents, developing jars and capillaries are ordered separately.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Enquire for a single pack for a demonstration or a stock large enough for a full practical batch; the quotation names packing, delivery time and price for that amount. Filter paper, beakers and other school chemistry lab equipment in India can share the quotation.
As a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Qatar, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Malaysia, Peru and Egypt. Start with the contact page, save products to the enquiry cart, or check the lab tender page if you are buying against a tender.
Frequently Asked Questions
What size is the chromatographic paper?
Each sheet is 110 x 140 mm, white and rectangular, which leaves space for a pencil baseline, several sample spots and a clear run for the solvent front.
Which school experiments use chromatography paper?
It is used to separate the dyes in ink in Class 9 and to separate leaf and flower pigments and calculate Rf values in Class 12 chemistry practicals.
Who supplies the Chromatographic Paper?
Science Lab Supplies supplies it from Ambala, India, and can quote it with the other separation apparatus a school or college laboratory needs for its practical classes.
Is ordinary filter paper the same as chromatography paper?
They are separate items in this range. Filter paper is intended for filtering liquids, while this paper is cut into sheets for chromatography; both can be ordered on one quotation.
Related Separation Apparatus
These four items support chromatography and other separation practicals alongside the paper: a complete chromatography set, a wall chart on separation methods, filter paper for filtration work, and a small beaker that can serve as a developing vessel. All four can be quoted together.

- Filter Paper — 120 mm circles for filtration.
- Chemical Glasses (Beaker) 100ml — a vessel for the solvent.
