Featuring a refined alpha-cellulose depth medium with very fast flow and a 25 to 30 micron nominal particle retention, this 150mm quantitative ashless filter paper disc is built for rapid clarification of liquids carrying coarse precipitates and gelatinous solids. The acid-washed cellulose construction delivers an exceptionally low ash content of less than 0.007 percent, so it introduces virtually no contaminants during gravimetric analysis. Each disc measures 210 microns thick with a basis weight of 85 grams per square meter, and is supplied nonsterile in packs of 100.
Key Cellulose Media Characteristics

- Nominal particle retention of 25 to 30 microns for capturing coarse and gelatinous precipitates
- Very fast flow rate that speeds high-throughput and routine filtrations
- Ashless grade with less than 0.007 percent ash content for accurate quantitative and gravimetric work
- Acid-washed cellulose offering broad chemical compatibility for laboratory filtration
Key Construction Characteristics
- 150mm diameter circle format suited to Buchner funnels and standard filter funnels
- Nominal thickness of 210 microns with a basis weight of 85 grams per square meter
- Quantitative ashless Grade 45 cellulose construction
- Supplied nonsterile, 100 discs per pack
This filter paper maintains consistent flow and retention across each disc, supporting repeatable separations and dependable sample integrity. The very fast flow and high loading capacity make it well suited to clarifying heavily loaded samples before downstream analysis. Its ashless purity preserves the accuracy of gravimetric and quantitative results.
