Whatman Puradisc PTFE Syringe Filters, 0.45 µm, 4 mm, 100/Pk - 6784-0404
Whatman manufactures under Cytiva's quality infrastructure, drawing on a filtration heritage that spans laboratory, environmental, and industrial applications. Syringe filters mount on a syringe to clarify a sample in a single manual pass. PTFE stays chemically inert against aggressive solvents, strong acids, and alkalis while holding consistent absolute retention at the rated pore size and filters aggressive organic solvents without breakdown. The polypropylene housing resists aqueous acids, bases, and alcohols while keeping the fluid path low in extractable contamination and holds a reliable seal against the membrane edge. When method reproducibility rests on consistent sample prep, syringe filtration holds that standard injection after injection.
Technical Specifications

- Chemically inert against aggressive solvents, strong acids, and alkalis
- Low extractables keep the chromatographic background clean
- Absolute pore size rating gives consistent results across protocols
- Hydrophobic membrane repels water for gas, vent, and solvent filtration
Housing Specifications
- Resists aqueous acids, bases, and alcohols in routine sample prep
- Low extractable contribution protects sensitive downstream analyses
- Reliable housing-to-membrane seal prevents bypass at rated pressure
- Medical-grade polypropylene with broad chemical compatibility
Clarifying organic mobile phases before injection protects your chromatography while standing up to the solvent. Reliable solvent prefiltration clears particulates from your organic samples so your downstream method starts with a clean sample.
