Whatman Puradisc PTFE Syringe Filters, 1 µm, 25 mm, 50/Pk - 6784-2510
Whatman draws on Cytiva's broader manufacturing oversight while continuing a legacy of filtration work that touches laboratory research, environmental monitoring, and industrial processing alike. A syringe filter holds its membrane in a leak-tight housing for clarification at the bench. PTFE delivers absolute particle cutoff at the rated pore size while blocking aqueous ingress in vent applications and filters aggressive organic solvents without breakdown. The PP housing stays inert across common laboratory solvents and buffers in routine use while maintaining a low-dead-volume internal flow path and keeps sample purity intact through the filtration pass. When method reproducibility rests on consistent sample prep, syringe filtration holds that standard injection after injection.
Technical Specifications
- Hydrophobic PTFE's low surface energy, near 18.5 dynes per centimeter, extends its repellency beyond water to oils and other nonpolar liquids.
- PTFE carries a UL 94 V-0 flammability rating, the highest self-extinguishing classification for polymer materials
- PTFE retains flexibility without embrittlement down to -73°C, allowing filtration of samples taken directly from cold-chain or freeze-thaw storage.
- PTFE's low ionic and metallic extractable profile supports ultrapure water filtration ahead of semiconductor wet-bench processes requiring high resistivity water
- PTFE resists chemical attack across the full pH 1 to 14 range
Housing Specifications
- Thermal-bonded construction keeps adhesives out of the fluid path
- Impact-tolerant polypropylene body withstands routine bench handling without damage
- Resists stress cracking from aqueous salt and buffer solutions
- Inert polyolefin wall contributes minimal sample adsorption to the filtrate
Removing particulates from organic solvents and reagents before they move downstream keeps contamination out of your results. Reliable solvent prefiltration clears particulates from your organic samples before it moves on to your next process step.
