Whatman Puradisc PTFE Syringe Filters, 0.45 µm, 13 mm, 2000/Pk - 6766-1304
Whatman's established manufacturing platform delivers the consistency and lot-level documentation that analytical laboratories require. Syringe filters mount on a syringe to clarify a sample in a single manual pass. PTFE delivers absolute particle cutoff at the rated pore size and suits solvent filtration where other membranes fail. The polypropylene housing routes flow to minimize backpressure in service while resisting aqueous acids, bases, and alcohols and contributes minimal extractables to the filtrate. For routine sample preparation across many methods, the syringe filter folds clarification into one disposable step.
Technical Specifications
- Chemically inert against aggressive solvents, strong acids, and alkalis
- Low extractables keep the chromatographic background clean
- Hydrophobic membrane repels water for gas, vent, and solvent filtration
- Filters aggressive organic solvents without swelling or breakdown
- Stable across a wide operating temperature range for demanding methods
Housing Specifications
- Optimized internal geometry minimizes backpressure in service
- Low extractable contribution protects sensitive downstream analyses
- Reliable housing-to-membrane seal prevents bypass at rated pressure
- Thermal-bonded construction keeps adhesives out of the fluid path
Handling the harsh solvents your methods demand calls for a filter that holds up to the chemistry, pass after pass. Reliable solvent prefiltration clears particulates from your organic samples from reaction mixtures and crude extracts through final analysis.
