Some people use chromatography to find out what is in a solid or a liquid. In a broad sense the techniques for the chemical analysis can be classified as follows. Apart from these there are certain modified forms of these chromatographic techniques involving different mechanisms and are hence categorized as modified or specialized chromatographic techniques. These two phases can be solidliquid, liquidliquid or gasliquid. As the solvent soaks up the paper, it carries the mixtures with it. Another means of improving resolution is the use of ionexchange sect. In thin layer chromatography, a solid phase, the adsorbent, is coated onto a solid support as a thin layer usually. Different components of the mixture will move at different rates. The plane can be a paper, serving as such or impregnated by a substance as the stationary bed paper chromatography or a layer of solid particles spread on a support such as a glass plate thin layer chromatography.
