Whatman Puradisc PTFE Syringe Filters, 1 µm, 25 mm, 1000/Pk - 6798-2510
Whatman maintains in-house specialists who set and verify material specifications separately for its cellulose, glass-fiber, and polymer membrane chemistries, tailoring quality control to how each one behaves in use. Syringe filters span a wide range of membrane chemistries and pore sizes, so the format can be matched to the sample matrix and solvent system in use. Hydrophobic PTFE blocks aqueous ingress in vent and gas applications and handles concentrated acids and bases. The polypropylene housing resists aqueous acids, bases, and alcohols in routine use and maintains a low-dead-volume internal flow path. For routine sample preparation across many methods, each analytical run starts with a consistent, particle-free sample without added hardware or a cleaning step.
Technical Specifications
- Hydrofluoric acid resistance holds even in fully acid-digested samples
- UL 94 V-0 rating confirms the highest self-extinguishing classification
- High membrane porosity, 70 to 80 percent void volume, delivers high flow at low pressure
- Chemical resistance spans the full pH 1 to 14 range
- Biological inertness resists enzymatic attack from proteases and lipases
Housing Specifications
- Low moisture absorption keeps the housing dimensionally stable through humid storage and shipping
- Optimized internal geometry minimizes backpressure in service
- Minimal ionic background from the polypropylene housing supports ion chromatography and trace-metal ICP-MS sample preparation.
- Withstands standard 121°C steam autoclave cycles without softening or structural distortion
Handling the harsh solvents your methods demand means choosing a filter built to withstand what passes through it, run after run. Reliable solvent prefiltration clears particulates from your organic samples from reaction mixtures and crude extracts through further processing.
