Grade 201 Cellulose Filter Paper, 58x58cm Sheet, 500 Pk SKU: 5201-935

Qualitative Filter Paper - 5201-935

Teaching laboratories introducing filtration techniques need a paper grade that produces reliable results while remaining cost-effective for student use. Manufactured without chemical hardening or acid washing, qualitative cellulose delivers the unmodified surface properties routine filtration requires. Lot-level verification of retention, thickness, and ash content ensures predictable performance when scaling from method development to routine analysis.

Key Filter Paper Characteristics

• Non-hardened paper balances effective particle retention with economical unit cost for high-volume routine laboratory use.
• Nominal retention of Medium Fine provides the particle size cutoff appropriate for the analytical or preparative separation method.
• Basis weight of 75g/m² indicates the fiber mass per unit area that controls retention, flow rate, and wet strength.
• Uniform fiber distribution across the sheet ensures consistent particle retention from edge to center for reproducible filtration results.
• Wet strength sufficient for gentle handling during precipitate transfer while maintaining the rapid flow rates of qualitative grades.

When your multi-site study requires comparable data across laboratories, papers manufactured to tight documented specifications ensure your results align. In response, broad grade availability lets you match retention, flow rate, and thickness to each specific application in your method library. Make the decision for consistency and reliability, ensuring that your laboratory maintains its reputation for high-quality, error-free output.
