Featuring a hydrophilic cellulose medium prepleated into a folded format, these 150mm qualitative filter paper discs deliver fast, general-purpose clarification across a wide range of routine laboratory separations. The prefolded geometry exposes additional surface area, which shortens overall filtration time and increases loading capacity compared with equivalent flat circles, while reducing the time normally spent quadrant-folding discs to fit conical funnels.
Key Cellulose Media Characteristics
- Naturally hydrophilic cellulose that wets out readily with aqueous samples for consistent, even flow.
- Qualitative grade suited to routine analytical separations where residue weighing is not required.
- Medium particle retention with good flow rate, ideal for clarifying liquids and general filtration.
- Folded (prepleated) structure that increases exposed surface area for higher loading capacity and faster filtration.
- Depth-type cellulose matrix that captures and holds particulates throughout the paper thickness.
Key Construction Characteristics
- Cellulose filter paper supplied as a 150mm diameter disc.
- Prefolded format designed to seat directly in conical filter funnels.
- Nonsterile.
- Packaged 100 discs per pack.
These discs provide reliable, repeatable clarification for everyday laboratory workflows, helping maintain sample integrity by removing particulates ahead of analysis. The folded design supports steady flow and a self-supporting shape in conical funnels, making them a practical choice for high-throughput routine filtration.
