Featuring a hardened, ashless cellulose medium made from refined pulp and pure cotton linters, this Grade DME07 qualitative filter paper disc delivers fast filtration for routine analytical work. Each 110mm disc provides a nominal particle retention range of 10 to 13 microns, a nominal thickness of 190 microns, and a basis weight of 85 g/m squared. The near 100 percent alpha-cellulose construction and low ash content make it well suited to a broad range of laboratory clarification and identification tasks.
Key Cellulose Filter Paper Characteristics
- Hardened ashless cellulose produced from refined pulp and pure cotton linters with an alpha-cellulose content of nearly 100 percent.
- Low ash content of less than 0.06 percent that is not reduced by post-treatment, supporting clean qualitative results.
- Nominal particle retention of 10 to 13 microns with a fast flow rate for general filtration and clarifying liquids.
- Naturally hydrophilic surface that wets readily with aqueous samples.
- Nominal thickness of 190 microns and basis weight of 85 g/m squared for consistent handling and loading capacity.
Key Construction Characteristics
- Format: 110mm diameter circle (disc).
- Grade: DME07, qualitative, fast filtration.
- Sterility: Nonsterile.
- Pack: 100 discs per box.
This filter paper maintains consistent retention and flow across routine filtrations, helping protect sample integrity during clarification and qualitative analysis. Its hardened, low-ash structure provides reliable performance for separating fine precipitates and clarifying liquids in everyday laboratory procedures.
