Experiments are performed to use a brand of Chinese filter paper in paper chromatographic analysis.The paper used is the "fine" grade filter paper manufactured by the First Eastern Factory, Fou-Shun.It appears that the filter paper, after adequate treatment, may be used in paper chromatographic work.Treatment essentially consists of washing with dilute hydnxhloric acid and distilled water and ascending with suitable solvents of the particular canon-groups.In this experiment, the solvents used for chromatographic analysis of aluminium, silver and arsenic groups were modified from that used by F.H.Burstall and others.
