SiliaMetS® Cysteine (Si-Cys) is the silica bound equivalent of the amino acid Cysteine. By attaching the molecule to the backbone via the amino group, the thiol group remains free and accessible for higher metal scavenging efficiency. It is a versatile metal scavenger for a variety of metals including Pd, Sn, Ru, Pt, Cu, Rh, Cd and Sc under a wide range of conditions and the preferred metal scavenger for tin residues.
Best scavenger for: Cd, Fe, Ir, Os, Ru, Sc & Sn
Good scavenger for: Ca, Cr, Cs, Cu, La, Mg, Pd, Pt, Rh, Se & Zn
