These ion exchange papers combine cellulose and large pore silica gel for separations in which both partition and adsorption are important, including the separation of phospholipids, steroids, phenols and dyes.

• Simultaneous development of multiple samples on the same sheet
• Sequential development of the same samples with different solvents and/or different concentrations of the same solvent
• Suitable for two-dimensional chromatography (change in direction of the solvent front) with possible improved resolution
• Used in enzyme assays to separate product from reactant by charge or polarity
