Hydrophobic PTFE Syringe Filter, 0.22µm, 13mm, Luer-Lok, Nonsterile, 100/Pk SKU: LE-IWT-ES10017

Featuring hydrophobic polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) membrane technology delivering superior chemical resistance and thermal stability for organic solvent filtration applications. The 0.22µm pore structure provides precise particle retention while accommodating aggressive organic solvents, acids, bases, and aromatics that would degrade other membrane materials. Premium polypropylene housing construction with Luer-Lok inlet and Luer slip outlet connections ensures leak-tight performance under challenging laboratory conditions.

Key PTFE Membrane Characteristics

• Universal chemical compatibility withstands nearly all organic solvents, acids, bases, and aromatic compounds without membrane degradation
• Hydrophobic surface chemistry optimizes flow rates for low surface tension liquids including alcohols and organic solvents
• Exceptional thermal stability maintains membrane integrity at temperatures up to 60°C during hot solution processing
• Ultra-low extractables minimize sample contamination for critical HPLC and GC analytical preparations
• Inherently inert PTFE construction prevents chemical interactions that could compromise analytical results

Key Construction Characteristics

• Precision 0.22µm pore size delivers reliable particle removal while maintaining optimal flow characteristics
• Compact 13mm diameter design maximizes filtration efficiency in space-limited laboratory configurations
• Ultrasonic bonding technology ensures reliable seal integrity under pressure without adhesive contamination
• Luer-Lok inlet connection with male Luer slip outlet provides universal syringe compatibility and secure attachment
• Individual barrel marking clearly identifies membrane type and specifications for quality control documentation

LE-IWT-ES10017 filters accommodate filtration of aggressive organic substances and highly basic solutions while serving as effective transducer protectors in analytical instrumentation. Pre-wetting protocols enable aqueous solution compatibility, expanding your analytical flexibility across diverse sample matrices. The nonsterile configuration accelerates routine sample preparation workflows, making these filters essential for organic synthesis verification, solvent purification, and sample clarification in research and quality control laboratories demanding uncompromised chemical resistance.
