Featuring high-capacity cellulose fiber technology delivering exceptional loading performance for qualitative analytical separations requiring extended sample processing. Double the thickness of standard grade filters with superior particle retention and excellent loading capacity allows significantly more precipitate to be held without clogging. Ultra-high absorbency characteristics enable effective use as a sample carrier substrate, making these filters ideal for applications demanding both filtration and sample conveyance capabilities.
Key Cellulose Membrane Characteristics
- High-quality cotton linter construction treated to achieve minimum 98% alpha cellulose content ensures consistent analytical performance
- 6µm particle retention efficiently captures fine precipitates while maintaining moderate flow rates for extended processing
- Double-thickness construction prevents clogging even with high sample volumes, maximizing throughput capacity
- Exceptional absorbency properties make this grade particularly valuable when used as a sample carrier for chromatographic applications
- Hydrophilic surface chemistry provides rapid wetting and consistent filtration performance across diverse sample types
Key Construction Characteristics
- Enhanced wet strength from extra thickness makes this grade highly suitable for use in Büchner funnels and vacuum applications
- 55mm diameter accommodates standard laboratory funnel configurations and analytical protocols
- Nonsterile qualification supports routine qualitative analytical techniques without sterility requirements
- Moderately thick construction with slightly grained surface optimizes particle capture and retention
- 100-count packaging provides convenient laboratory inventory management for high-volume applications
Grade CFP3 filters achieve slower flow rates compared to thinner grades, enabling more thorough separation of fine particles during extended processing cycles. Standard grade performance for qualitative analytical techniques makes these filters essential for determining and identifying materials in research and quality control laboratories. Superior loading capacity combined with exceptional absorbency transforms these filters into versatile analytical tools, providing reliable performance for precipitation analysis, sample preparation, and general laboratory filtration applications requiring enhanced particle retention and sample handling flexibility.
