Thomson Head Space Frits are typically used for dry loading columns. These are used in conjunction with our patented SINGLE StEP Flash Chromatography Columns or for our Syringe Barrel Columns. Once a column is dry loaded with the reaction material for separation, Head Space Frit is placed on top of the mixture. This is then forced down using a plunger set that we provide. This enables compacting of the material and thereby preventing formation of channels. Channel formation can lead to solvent pooling and inaccurate separation. Head Space Frits avoid this drawback of the dry loading technique.
