Nylon Mesh Filters - ME17277
Precision-woven nylon mesh delivers consistent macrofiltration performance with defined mesh openings that capture particles on the filter surface while maintaining high flow rates for efficient sample processing. Woven nylon resists common organic solvents and alkaline solutions while maintaining dimensional stability through repeated filtration and cleaning cycles. With this in mind, uniform mesh construction ensures reproducible particle separation from batch to batch.
Key Nylon Mesh Characteristics
- Woven from 80 µm diameter nylon monofilament, the mesh structure provides reliable tensile strength without excessive reduction in open area.
- Broad chemical compatibility accommodates filtration of organic solvents, alcohols, and alkaline solutions commonly encountered in pharmaceutical and industrial laboratories.
- Naturally hydrophilic nylon monofilament wets on contact with aqueous solutions, eliminating pre-wetting requirements and reducing sample preparation time.
- Naturally hydrophilic nylon surface wets immediately on contact with aqueous solutions without requiring pre-treatment with alcohol or surfactant rinses.
- Plain-weave monofilament construction creates uniform square openings that deliver consistent particle retention across the entire filtration surface area.
Whether screening environmental samples or preparing solutions for downstream analysis, woven nylon mesh gives your workflow the particle control and flow efficiency it needs. Surface capture at the mesh plane allows you to visually inspect retained particles and recover them by backwashing for further characterization or analysis. Take control of your sample preparation variables and ensure that your data reflects the true nature of your work, rather than the quality of your consumables.
