Grade 1573 1/2 Qualitative Filter Paper Folded (Prepleated), 125mm, 100/Pk SKU: 10314744

Qualitative Filter Paper - 10314744

From student teaching labs to production QC departments, qualitative filter paper remains the workhorse for routine particle separation. Standard basis weight specifications provide predictable filter packing density for volumetric displacement calculations in funnel assemblies. To this end, from fiber selection through final inspection, the manufacturing process ensures every sheet meets the performance specifications of its grade.

Key Filter Paper Characteristics

• Wet-strengthened fiber matrix withstands extended contact with aqueous solutions without the disintegration that limits untreated papers.
• Standard qualitative cellulose filter paper provides reliable particle retention for gravity and vacuum filtration across routine laboratory workflows.
• Basis weight of 88g/m² indicates the fiber mass per unit area that controls retention, flow rate, and wet strength.
• Smooth surface finish supports clear visual inspection of retained material and clean separation from the collected filtrate.
• Medium porosity cellulose matrix captures suspended solids while maintaining the throughput needed for efficient batch processing.

Maintaining accreditation requires documented traceability at every step, and the grade specifications above support your audit readiness. Meeting this challenge, predictable retention and flow rate from a pure cellulose matrix give you a dependable filtration baseline for routine sample preparation. Take control of your sample preparation variables and ensure that your data reflects the true nature of your work, rather than the quality of your consumables.

• Precipitation Recovery - Collects insoluble reaction products on the paper surface for subsequent washing and downstream analysis.
• General Clarification - Removes suspended solids from aqueous solutions by gravity filtration for routine sample preparation.
• Soil Extract Filtration - Clarifies soil slurries for nutrient and pH testing, removing fine particles that interfere with analysis.
• Pigment Screening - Separates undispersed colorant particles from coating formulations during color development and QC testing.
• Enzyme Clarification - Removes particulates from enzyme solutions before activity assays in biochemistry and industrial testing.
• Lysate Clarification - Separates cellular debris from crude lysates before downstream chromatographic or electrophoretic analysis.
