Nylon Mesh Filters - ME17342
Nylon woven mesh offers naturally hydrophilic surface filtration with precise mesh openings engineered for reproducible particle separation across pharmaceutical, environmental, and industrial laboratory workflows. Plain-weave monofilament construction creates uniform square openings that deliver consistent particle retention across the entire filtration surface area. Because of this, naturally hydrophilic nylon wets immediately for rapid processing without pre-treatment delays.
Key Nylon Mesh Characteristics
- Open area of 57% maximizes flow throughput while maintaining the mesh geometry needed for consistent particle retention at the rated opening size.
- Broad chemical compatibility accommodates filtration of organic solvents, alcohols, and alkaline solutions commonly encountered in pharmaceutical and industrial laboratories.
- Surface filtration captures particles at the mesh plane, enabling visual inspection of retained material and straightforward recovery through gentle backwashing.
- Naturally hydrophilic nylon surface wets immediately on contact with aqueous solutions without requiring pre-treatment with alcohol or surfactant rinses.
- Flat disc geometry provides uniform filtration across the full active area when supported in a compatible filter holder or funnel assembly.
Whether your workflow demands rapid prefiltration or precise particle classification, nylon mesh delivers the mechanical durability and chemical compatibility needed for consistent daily performance. 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.
