Whatman GD/XP Polypropylene (PP) Syringe Filters, 0.45 µm, 25 mm, 150/Pk - 6993-2504
Whatman applies the same process controls across its filtration portfolio, verifying rated performance at the production lot level. A syringe filter seats a membrane in a sealed housing that threads onto a standard luer fitting. The polypropylene matrix delivers nominal retention with high dirt-loading capacity and resists a broad range of organic solvents, acids, and bases. The polypropylene housing contributes minimal extractables to the filtrate while resisting aqueous acids, bases, and alcohols and sustains efficient flow on viscous samples. When chromatographic methods demand particle-free injections, point-of-use syringe filtration clarifies the sample before it reaches the column.
Technical Specifications
- Sustains throughput on particulate-laden solvent samples
- Low extractables protect sensitive downstream analyses
- Hydrophobic matrix suits solvent and non-aqueous sample streams
- High resistance to organic solvents, acids, and bases
- Low binding with nominal depth retention and high dirt-loading capacity
Housing Specifications
- Low extractable contribution protects sensitive downstream analyses
- Reliable housing-to-membrane seal prevents bypass at rated pressure
- Optimized internal geometry minimizes backpressure in service
- Thermal-bonded construction keeps adhesives out of the fluid path
Filtering aggressive solvents and reagents through a filter that holds up to the chemistry keeps your sample prep reliable. Reliable solvent prefiltration clears particulates from your organic samples from reaction mixtures and crude extracts through final analysis. Ask our friendly customer service team to confirm the pore size, membrane, and sterility options your filtration application calls for.
