Featuring a refined cellulose medium made from pure pulp and cotton linters, this Grade DMS02 qualitative filter paper delivers medium-slow filtration with strong retention and absorbency for routine analytical work. Qualitative filters are made of refined pulp and pure cotton linters with an alpha-cellulose content of nearly 100%, giving them diverse filtration properties. Each 150mm circle provides reliable separation of fine precipitates, and the low ash content of less than 0.06% is not reduced by post-treatment. This 100-piece pack is supplied nonsterile.
Key Cellulose Media Characteristics
- Refined pulp and pure cotton linters with an alpha-cellulose content of nearly 100% for consistent, diverse filtration behavior
- Medium-slow filtration speed, slightly more retentive and absorbent than the faster general-purpose grades
- Low ash content of less than 0.06%, not reduced by post-treatment, supporting clean qualitative work
- Naturally hydrophilic structure that wets readily for efficient liquid handling
- Well suited to the filtration of fine precipitates and clarification of liquids
Key Construction Characteristics
- Cellulose construction in a 150mm diameter circle format
- Grade DMS02 qualitative designation for routine analytical separations
- Supplied nonsterile in a convenient pack of 100
This filter paper maintains dependable performance across general filtration and clarification tasks where consistent retention matters. Its medium-slow flow and high absorbency help preserve sample integrity when handling fine precipitates and difficult-to-clarify liquids. The result is reliable, repeatable separation for everyday laboratory and analytical use.
