Featuring a 100% borosilicate glass fiber depth medium, these 25mm filter discs deliver 1.5um nominal particle retention without any added binder. The naturally hydrophilic, binder-free structure provides a large internal surface area that captures fine particulates throughout the depth of the medium, combining high dirt-holding capacity with fast flow and low resistance. Supplied 100 per pack.
Key Glass Fiber Media Characteristics
- Binder-free borosilicate construction avoids binder extractables, making the medium well suited to solvent filtration and gravimetric analysis.
- Naturally hydrophilic for fast, even wetting of aqueous samples with no pre-wetting agents required.
- 1.5um nominal retention as a depth medium rather than an absolute pore size, retaining fine particles down through the fiber matrix.
- High particulate loading capacity from the open depth structure, ideal for heavily loaded or hard-to-filter samples.
- Biologically inert and chemically resistant to most solvents and reagents, with broad thermal tolerance.
Key Construction Characteristics
- Diameter: 25mm circle format.
- Nominal thickness: 0.26mm.
- Sterility: Nonsterile.
- Pack: 100 discs per box.
The depth-filtration structure maintains consistent flow as the medium loads, protecting downstream membranes and analytical instruments from particulate fouling. The binder-free borosilicate composition preserves sample integrity by minimizing extractable interference, supporting reliable, reproducible results across clarification and prefiltration workflows.
